    About halfway through the rather tedious "Clear Cut" scenario on SPG and saved last night before bedtime.

    On going to resume just now the game dropped me first into Coal Loading, then Powering America Part One.

    So it looks like the save game slot has been wiped. :( :mad:

    Hi
    I always have a backup in the cloud.
    So i went to see the date of the Backup
    I found that MS is saving my games .
    The way is :
    C:\Users\%User%\OneDrive\Documents\My Games\TSW4 and TSW4
    Microsoft its strange. The way it is point is different in my Win11.
    So is not a Dovetail problem but a Windows problem.
    Like Word always by default wants to save in the Folder "One"
    Restore the backup, it download again the update and its ok
    Let´s play it is Train Time

    Thank to all

    TSW save game process is hardly anything to do with MS. It’s there latest patch which somehow wiped it. Good on you for having a backup but not everyone wants to put stuff on external servers and nor should we have to.
