Silent Hill: Townfall Save File Location

Last verified: 2026-09-25

Save file location (Windows (Steam / all PC builds)): C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Townfall\Saved\SaveGames\

Quick answer: On PC, Silent Hill: Townfall stores its save files in your Local AppData under a folder named after its internal codename "Townfall" (NOT "Silent Hill"), which is why players can't find it: C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Townfall\Saved\SaveGames\. It's an Unreal Engine game with one autosave slot plus 20+ manual slots. Steam Cloud also syncs this folder on exit, so close the game before restoring a backup.

Save file locations

Windows (Steam / all PC builds)
C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Townfall\Saved\SaveGames\

Primary location. The folder is 'Townfall' (the game's engine project name), not 'Silent Hill Townfall'. Reach it with Win+R -> %LOCALAPPDATA%\Townfall\Saved\SaveGames. Unreal Engine .sav files.

Steam Cloud
Synced from the Local AppData folder above on game exit

Silent Hill: Townfall supports Steam Cloud. It uploads after you close the game, so a manual restore done while the game or Steam is running can be reverted to the cloud copy.

Cloud saves

Silent Hill: Townfall uses Steam Cloud, syncing the AppData\Local\Townfall\Saved\SaveGames folder when you exit. To restore or swap a save safely, fully close the game and Steam first, replace the files, then relaunch so the correct copy is the one uploaded โ€” otherwise Steam may overwrite your restored save with the older cloud version.

How to open the save folder

  1. Press Win+R, type %LOCALAPPDATA%\Townfall\Saved\SaveGames and press Enter.
  2. If that folder is missing, the game may not have created a save yet โ€” start a game and let it autosave once.
  3. Back up by copying the whole Townfall folder while the game is closed (keeps settings too, not just saves).
  4. Steam -> right-click Silent Hill: Townfall -> Manage -> Browse local files opens the INSTALL folder, not the save folder โ€” saves live in Local AppData, not the install directory.
  5. Show hidden items in File Explorer if AppData isn't visible (View -> Show -> Hidden items).
