    Starfield saves


    I bought Starfield from the Microsoft store and loaded it from the Xbox app for PC.

    I ran in to an issue with Starfield saves where 2 days (about 10 hours) of played saves were lost. I'm not sure how they were lost. Playing on Sunday I got an error message stating that "unable to save" . I quit and went to bed then when I loaded the game on Monday all my progress from early Friday evening through Sunday was gone....all auto saves and quick saves were missing too along with a couple manual saves. I do not play on Xbox and this is the only game I have played on the Xbox app and probably the last due to these issues.

    So I started looking to where the game is placing my saves and could not find local copies anywhere. I checked under my games/starfield, in local and roaming appdata folders. I ran a complete search on my system and didnt find them. I also checked onedrive...nada. So it doesnt appear that the game is saving any of my progress to my local PC. Is there a way to change it to save locally instead of on the cloud or to at least save in both places? I dont have an xbox so I only play on PC.

    thanks

    :)

    Is Starfield supposed to be Xbox Play Anywhere enabled?

    starfield is cross save so yes the saves are in the cloud and work on both xbox console and pc xbox app.

    I do not believe it is possible to play on Steam and xbox using the same saves. Xbox uses some weird way of saving the game locally on the PC and in the cloud.

    Starfield saves

    now heres a better question, how do i make it so the save file limit has no limit and doesnt sync to the cloud? or do we just have to wait for a script that kills the cloud connection by force and only relies on our hard drive? that or is there a hidden setting to make the game only save on our hard drive and will eliminate the save file size cause i should never run into save file limit reached unable to save game with 17 plus terabits of storage available, which means the cloud stuff that we cant turn off is forcing a limit on this.

    I gave up trying to fix it and requested an refund which was denied. I uninstalled the game and gave up.

    Bethesda support was gracious enough to provide me with a key to play on steam. I lost all progress and had to start over but that's better than worry about the random progress deletes happening on the Xbox client.
