    My profile got corrupted.

    I have so questions about that.

    #1 How did my profile get corrupted?

    #2 Is there a backup my profile so if it happens again, I do not need to start over?

    b) If so to my last question: Is there a way to do it off line (ex not using PS4 Plus)?

    Please and thank you

    I ask. how is it corrupt??, starting again?, could you explain better what happened to your profile?? The dice you give are not enough for us to understand the problem.

    Unless you have a previous backup, you have to start again.

    Is there a way to make a backup copy of a profile in TSW2?

    Or an Portable Hard Drive. I don't know where you are located, but if you are in the the UK, Argos sell them.

    https://www.argos.co.uk/browse/tech.../external-hard-drives/c:30073/brands:toshiba/

    They have other brands, but I use the 1TB one from Toshiba, and it's great. My PS4 is 500GB, so this gives me that extra space to move data on or off my PS4. I have no complaints of it. You will have to decide what to store, save data, or apps (but not both).

    Ok, so if I understand it right:
    I need to go to:
    • Settings -> Application Saved Data Management -> Saved Data in System Storage -> Copy to USD Storage Device -> select TSW2 and copy everything? :)

    I will check that as soon as I can.

    Some disk questions:

    How big the disk must be (Ex at least 15 MB)?

    How big can the disk be (Ex at most 90 GB)?

    What format(s) does the disk have to be (Exs FAT 32, NFTS)?

    Does it have to be a jump/thumb drive OR can it be any USB disk (ex USB HD)?

    Please and thank you

    Hey,
    Can't help with the minimum capacity of the disc, no idea here, but I can tell you what I've used.

    I have used USB stick, 4GB capacity, FAT32 file format (NTFS is not supported). All TSW2 related data in my case are about 60MB.
    You can also use USB connected HDD/SSD with capacity up to 8TB.

    Mine was corrupted as well. Lost all my progress and I've had to restart with a new profile. Luckily all DLC, CC stuff and Mastery was still as it was before, and I'm still connected with my DTL account. As far as I know, there's no way to recover data or a backup without PS+, and as for how it got corrupted, I honestly have no idea. It just happened from nowhere.

    Thank you it worked. :)

    Not 100 % solved as to why but that will do...

    Appears to be not true. User can use USB thumb/jump, USB external HD.

    That is unless I missing something.
