Talk:Backing Up Game/@comment-35708978-20180606023039

Thanks so much for the info, Foss. I've noticed your name in many wiki posts for this game and for Seekers Notes Hidden Mystery. As a fairly recent player of both games, I can't begin to tell you how valuable your contributions have been.

I wish I had seen a backup-related post when I started SNHM. I'm only playing SSHM (on my Surface Pro3 travel laptop) because my main pc where I played SNHM crashed and had to be sent back to the manufacturer. It will take weeks to get it repaired and returned and they think all data may be lost. In the meantime I'm biding my time by playing SSHM. I wondered why the MS store didn't show SNHM when I tried to download it to this pc (Win 8.1). Now that I've seen your post regarding Win 10 being a requirement for current versions of SSHM, I expect SNHM required Win 10 as well. I guess that also means the version of SSHM I downloaded to this pc is an older version. I didn't realize that.

I have no idea why it never occured to me to backup the user data from these games. I definitely will going forward. Of course I do understand as game versions and my opeating system, etc change I could always encounter problems if I have to use a backup but it's WAY better than accepting a total loss without at least attempting a resolution.

Thank you again for all your help to wiki readers for these games. It's very much appreciated. - L2game
