How to Backup SAVE GAME Files or Duplicate Saves ► Elden Ring

POTENTIAL WARNING: Apparently 1.06 patch now frowns on the character copying. It will give you an "Inappropriate activity detected..." message. And in my own testing, deleting the "extra" saved character does NOT resolve this. Reverifying game files now to see if it will resolve the issue, if not, testing Uninstall/Reinstall.

I am trying to do this with Lies Of P but it is not showing in the Roaming folder, just wanna have extra saves to practice all bosses in case i accidentally killed them

I use the 1.09 version of Elden Ring, and 1.5.1[BETA] on seamless coop. The extension of all the files is co2 instead of sl2, but the application does not recognize co2 files. I am writing here because in the github description it says that it supports seamless coop, so i'm wondering what am i doing wrong? I tried just changing the extension but that didn't work. Any advice will be appreciated, thanks

WINKEY+R %appdata%. straight to roaming folder

How do you do it on Xbox?

Does this work for PS5 (PS4 version - 60 FPS FTW) currently on patch 1.10?

does it work for 1.10?

also, do i need to delete the .bak file?

I can’t open v3 Elden ring save copy please help me

Tip: if you can't figure it out just use a cheat sheet on a new character lol

Just wanted to say both methods did not work for me. Copying and replacing a newer save from an old one does nothing. Using the app to copy the older save into a separate save slot also does nothing. Very disappointed I wasted my larval tear.

love you man

Love the vid, I made a simple back up for now as I don't want to risk the temp-ban for online by making a duplicate. Since I use online a lot. If I really want multiple save files I think I'll just cut and replace the file I want to play on if that'll work. Made a big folder for all my back ups and then subfolders for the characters/saves to keep em apart. Thanks again :)

I don't have urser-pc.I'm stuck help needed.

I dont know why, but the savegam copy tool cannot find the copied file as the source. i tried reinstalling it, i tried it on the desktop and in a folder but it just cant find/select it. anybody got a clue? Edit: Okay ive got it now its as simple as restarting your pc.

Thank you very much!

just saved me 300 hours 💀

I'd like to know if there's a way to do this with the saved data used in Seamless co-op mod. Just tried to do it myself by the only files available for copying are the vanilla files.

Just did this in August of 2023, this still works! Idk about online play since i use mods.

BROOOOOO THANKYOUUUUU SOOOO MUCH MY DUMBASS downloaded seamless coop and it ended up removing my saved gamed data i thought it was gone forever 57 hours of grinding gone but your method saved meeee i from the bottom of my heart thankyou brooo 😭❤❤❤❤

tyy

you are my idol

Does it works safely (without getting banned) in version 1.10?

what if my file is in .co2 file in seamless coop?

If you reply to this you hate elden ring, hah bet you won’t reply

nice now i don't have to replay the game another time. ive gone through and farmed this game atleast 4 times

nice it works 1.10 didnt get banned

bro thank you so much i just so scared when my game crashed but its fixxed now

does anyone know how to do this with gotham knights?

1.10 and it still works amazingly, thank you!

Its gives me a copy failed message!

Still works on 1.10 but do i get banned for going online with the duplicate?

As of 1.10, it appears to work perfectly fine. I haven't tried actually being summoned into another world as a cooperator yet, but just a few notes (Edit, works fine even with getting summoned):
- I copied over the save file to desktop (or any location, really) before I went back on the game and deleted messages on the character
- I deleted the backup file before booting up the game just to be safe, as per instructions (but kept a backup of the backup on desktop as well)
- Copying over the same character from the desktop save file with the messages doesn't seem to conflict with the original character in the folder save file, without messages
- I've been booting up and playing with Online turned on this entire time and it hasn't yelled at me with a warning yet

All around, works as intended if you're careful. Cheers!

thanks

I thank thee immensely...

still works perfectly patch 1.09

Thanks mate, it works

I’m reading a lot of the comments here, and I’m getting a lot of different answers regarding softbans, so let me clean this up.

Does this still work on the latest patch, and is there anything I need to do before duping saves to bypass the softban? (Deleting messages, going offline, etc)

i have cracked version of elden ring v1.4 and i want to buy real game now. can i carry over my save file like that to the real game?

windows is warning about risky process but i start the programm and its work

Was initially skeptical, but it works like a charm as of 1.09.1. Thanks for the guide.
