Lost my progress due to the Cloud Save function in Forza.

i lost my progress after sync console with cloud, so i think new game and new progress now at cloud. On my PC i have game with old progress, can i load progress from PC to cloud , not from cloud to pc. How to find local savings at PC ?

The local Forza Horizon 4 save games are located here:

C:\Users\*username*\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.SunriseBaseGame_8wekyb3d8bbwe\SystemAppData

There should be a wgs folder in there which is the save folder.

Not entirely sure how to get the local copy synced to the cloud without the cloud over-riding the local copy though...way beyond my ability to understand

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. I've tried what you mentioned by uninstalling the game and reinstalling. The last level where all was fine and my progress was being saved to the cloud was level 148 and since then it never synced.

I've now reached 150 with the past two levels not synced to the cloud. So I did what you asked and uninstalled the game, When I reinstalled it, I lost all my progress. It synced to the cloud and got me all my progress until 148 - makes sense since my progress after that never saved to the cloud due to the error.

I then played another game to further my progress and after I completed the same, again it fails to sync my progress to the cloud.

I'm now again at level 150 and I only have my local save. How do I get out of this issue and save my progress to the cloud??

For whatever reason, after reinstalling my profile and launching Forza the synced data from the cloud was not correct. I lost all of my progress in the game (20+ million cr, lvl 110, lots of rare cars). Is there any way to obtain old cloud save data? I
know I have cloud saves as I switch between PC and Xbox. All gone now.

No, your game progress is saved in the Xbox Cloud and will sync each time you start the game on your console, regardless of whether you lost the license due to the refund or not.

Kind regards,
Gerardo.
