Hi,

if you was online at the time, try removing the save date by doing these steps.

1. go to fallout 4 in my games and apps, just highlight the game.

2. Press on the menu button and then go to manage game.

3. Go to saved data and Press A on it and delete from console.

4. Boot up fallout 4 the cloud will come up.

5. See if this solves your problem

Happy Gaming!

Hello stalkop231,

Greetings!



Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

Based on the description, you are trying to install the game in your main PC and wanted to start the game where you left in your other device. Let us check and see on what we can do to help resolve your concern in a timely manner.

If we may ask, are you playing the game through Xbox app or using other app?

Your Fallout 4 save game file can be found by default here: C:\Users\username\Documents\My Games\Fallout4. Copy this save file to your main PC and place it in the same location. If the file is too large for your transfer method, you can compressed the file.



To check if your game saves have synced, launch Fallout 4 on your main PC and see if your progress has been saved. If you still have issues, you can try manually uploading your game save from your laptop to the cloud and then downloading it on your main PC. To do this, go to the "Saved Data" section in the Xbox app on your laptop, select Fallout 4, and then click on "Upload to cloud". Once the upload is complete, go to the "Saved Data" section on your main PC, select Fallout 4, and then click on "Download from cloud".

We look forward to your response. Kindly let us know, if there is any misunderstanding or clarifications of our description by sending us a reply.

Sincerely,

If you play connected to xbox live you game data will automatically be saved to the cloud. Important to note that the cloud is used only to save game data not the game itself.

Example: if you are playing Fallout 4 on your console and save your game and go to another console with Fallout 4 installed you can sign in with your xbox live profile and play from where you left off on the previous console. But you cannot save Fallout
4 the game to the cloud to play on both consoles without installing it onto there hard drives.

I hope this helps

You could try, if your saves are already backed up to the cloud:

Go into my games > Fallout 4 > Press (≡) > Manage:

Try to find on the right column the saves under your username, if they were already downloaded to the console

Press menu on the saves -> select delete

Make sure to click from console, NOT FROM EVERYWHERE (this would delete all of your saves forever)

Power cycle your xbox

Open Fallout 4 and let it reinstall (try to re-sync) your saves from the cloud.
