  • Where on my hard drive can I can saved files from itch.io?

Hi everyone

My game saves data to user://

I've uploaded the game to itch.io in html format. I can create and load files, but can't locate them on my PC.

I've read that they should be saved at
C:\users[USERNAME]\AppData\LocalLow[APPNAME]
or
C:\users[USERNAME]\AppData\Local[APPNAME]

but I can't even see a folder there for the game (I've checked for hidden files).

I've also read that they should be in the in the Applications tab of Chrome after I press F12, but can't find them there either.

I've also done a file search for C:\

Does anyone know where the files are supposed to save?

Thanks

    OofStatement but I can't even see a folder there for the game (I've checked for hidden files).

    Have you searched for directories relating to godot, the engine tho?

      From the manual:

      On HTML5 exports, user:// will refer to a virtual filesystem stored on the device via IndexedDB. (Interaction with the main filesystem can still be performed through the JavaScriptBridge singleton.)

      edit: To see this, open up the browsers developer tools and check its storage tab and browse the database here. Values are keyed on website.

      I have a C:\Users[USERNAME]\AppData\Roaming\Godot\app_userdata[APP_NAME] folder, but the files only get saved there when I run the game in Godot.
