    Account reset problem when connecting xbox account to steam in forza horizon 5 game


    I played forza horizon 5 game on xbox gamepass before. Then I bought the game from steam to play. When I opened the game, it asked me to link my xbox account to my steam account. When I made the connection and opened the game, I saw that it reset my profile and I started the game again from the story section. Please help me I don't want to start the game from scratch again

    :)

    Account reset problem when connecting xbox account to steam in forza horizon 5 game

    Because they are both different clients and they have their own separate data. I believe this is because of the licenses that they have on their data. Unfortunately, this is how it works on both clients.

    Hi there! This is Ronnie, an independent advisor.

    Nice to meet you and I hope you are having a great day!

    I understand you need help with your Forza 5 saved data

    Just a heads up, MS/Xbox and Steam has separate progress and they will not sync with each other even if you are logged in with your account. They will always have separate data as they are 2 different clients. If you want to continue playing your data, you can only do that through Xbox since you will start again on Steam.

    Nice to meet you too

    I understand what you mean, but I don't understand why. I agree, they're two different platforms but ultimately the same game. How can they have separate files? I've only seen this situation here.
