    How do I get my save files back after console deleted them?


    I was playing transformers devastation on disc (and a month ago just cause 3 on disc) and after 100%ing the game, the game crashed and when I rebooted, my save files had been erased and I was on a fresh game. This was especially bad for Just Cause 3 as I had DLC that was now missing and inaccessible for several hours. I contacted xbox support who told me there was nothing that could be done.

    Is there any way to find my save data and restore it to my current predicament?

    :)

    How do I get my save files back after console deleted them?

    Hi, I'm , an Independent advisor and I can surely help you.

    Don't worry we will work on this together. Let's try to troubleshoot.

    Don't worry we will fix this together. Please make sure you can sign in all your profiles. Let's try to restore the console back to factory defaults but we will select keep my games and apps so it won't remove your games and progress.

    Please follow the steps here:

    - Press the Xbox button to open the guide.

    - Select Settings

    - Select System

    - Select Console info & updates

    - Select Reset console

    - Select Keep Games and Apps

    After this, you will have to sign in again with your email and password. Then please try to launch the game and check if it will sync. Thanks!

    "Syncing data for Fallout 4..." never ever finishes

    It took me an hour and a half to sync after I bought a new console and tried to play Fallout 4. I think it has to do with the amount of save files. It's really best to let it finish. Once you are able to get back into the game delete some of the saves. You
    will be shocked with how many save files exist.

    Minecraft saves gone?

    Deleting 'profile and items' does delete all save files.

    If you selected that, then the save files do get erased.

    Once they're gone, there's no getting them back (unless you had manually copied them onto a second storage unit) and as such you will unfortunately need to create new save files and start over.

    Dead Cell crashes when selecting my save file and is unplayable

    Hi RichieB_

    Thanks for the suggestions!

    I tried them all, and none of them worked.

    I really don't want to delete my save file as I have invested quite a few hours in there... Is there anything else I could do? After all, deleting my main save file doesn't mean that the error won't happen again and I really wouldn't want to lose another save file.

    Is there any other option? In case it doesn't work, is there a chance I could get a refund?

    Regards,
