Star Wars Outlaws Save File Location

Last verified: 2026-10-07

Save file location (Windows (Steam)): C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\savegames

Quick answer: On PC, Star Wars Outlaws stores its saves in the Ubisoft Connect launcher's savegames folder, NOT in AppData or Documents: C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\savegames\<your-ubisoft-connect-id>\ , inside a numeric app-id subfolder (64181 for the Steam build, 17903 for the Ubisoft Connect build). Cloud sync in Outlaws is partly manual โ€” Ubisoft Connect does not always push the save automatically โ€” so copy the whole savegames folder before verifying files or moving PCs.

Star Wars Outlaws routes its saves through the Ubisoft Connect launcher โ€” even on Steam โ€” inside a numeric app-id subfolder, not in AppData or the Steam install folder, with partly manual cloud upload. Here is the exact PC path, how to open it, and how to back it up.

Save file locations

Windows (Steam)
C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\savegames

Full default: ...\Ubisoft Game Launcher\savegames\<ubisoft-connect-id>\64181\ . Even the Steam build routes saves through the Ubisoft launcher. Press Win+R and paste C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\savegames .

Windows (Ubisoft Connect)
C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\savegame

The Ubisoft Connect build uses the 'savegame' folder with app-id 17903: ...\savegame\<ubisoft-connect-id>\17903\ .

Ubisoft Connect Cloud
Ubisoft Connect cloud (partly manual)

Connect cloud sync alone does not always push saves โ€” you may need to pick 'Upload to cloud' in game. Do not rely on it as your only backup.

Cloud saves

Star Wars Outlaws syncs through Ubisoft Connect cloud, but the upload is partly manual โ€” Connect does not always push the latest save on its own. That makes rollbacks after a second-PC session especially common. Treat a manual copy of the savegames\<id>\64181 (or 17903) folder as your real backup, kept outside the launcher directory.

Cloud save conflict & platform recovery

The common loss is 'my progress rolled back' after playing on a second PC โ€” Ubisoft Connect cloud held an older save because the newer one was never manually uploaded.

  1. Before switching PCs, in game choose Upload to cloud (or let Connect finish syncing) so the latest save is actually in the cloud.
  2. If the cloud rolled your progress back, copy your local savegames folder out, then disable Connect cloud for Outlaws before launching so the old copy cannot sync down.
  3. Restore your copied folder into the same savegames\<id>\64181 path, launch once to confirm progress, then re-enable and upload to cloud.
Back up first (Windows) โ€” copy & run

One-line backup: paste this in Command Prompt to copy your whole Ubisoft savegames folder to the Desktop before an update or PC move.

robocopy "C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\savegames" "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\Outlaws-save-backup" /E

Run it with the game closed. To restore, swap the source and destination paths.

Save problems & fixes

FAQ

Where is the Star Wars Outlaws save file on PC?

In C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\savegames\<ubisoft-connect-id>\64181\ for the Steam build (17903 under 'savegame' for the Connect build) โ€” not in AppData or the Steam install folder.

Does Star Wars Outlaws sync to the cloud?

Yes, through Ubisoft Connect, but the upload is partly manual โ€” Connect does not always push the latest save automatically, so keep a manual copy of the savegames folder.

How do I move my Star Wars Outlaws saves to a new PC?

Upload to cloud in game first, or copy the savegames\<id>\64181 folder to the same Ubisoft launcher path on the new PC before first launch, keeping the app-id subfolder intact.

Why did my Star Wars Outlaws progress roll back?

Usually the newer save was never uploaded to Ubisoft Connect cloud, so an older copy synced down on the other PC. Restore your folder backup and upload to cloud manually.
