    No idea just replace BAK with PP and delete the current PP and i think you will restore your save if you have any of course

    Are you using OneDrive for your Documents?

    Just as I suspected.

    Do not use it. Probably there's syncing problems the time your savegames are written.

    Just an advice, keep your data local, make regular backups of your Documents folder, and you're free of trouble. My profile was started on TSW2020 and never got reset - don't use OneDrive!

    Then something else is going on on your system, maybe rogue AV software, can't tell from here. Never had this issue.

    You can use OneDrive (you're literally forced to because MS wants your data), but the issue is Unreal is saving your game data and settings in the Documents folder - probably this is in the OneDrive cloud (note I am not using it.)

    I remember Microsoft's guidelines recommend apps saving their data to %APPDATA%, but that's not the case here, Epic chose otherwise. Also lots of issues reported with ETS2 are due to OneDrive game data storage. (There is even players who try to install complete games to OneDrive, then complaining about issues...)

    But, there's something else not right with your system it seems. For the time being, regulary copy the Documents\My Games\TrainSimWorld4 folder to a safe place.
