Falkenpelz Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 So I was constantly having the issue with not being allowed excess to the game for some reason after every update for a while now. Normally just executing Steam as administrator solved the problem, but this time it did not. After working through the help page, I entered "-persistent_storage_root c/DontStarveTogether" into Launch options on Steam, as recommended by the help page. Now the game is running, but my save files seem to be all gone. Stuff like my skins or cookbook entries are still there, but no worlds. Can I retrieve them from somewhere or are they gone for good now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dollmaker Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Um... idk for sure, but i think that if you didnt backed up the worlds somewhere, they are gone for good if they got deleted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queron81 Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Maybe try it with a file recovery tool, if these worlds are important for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falkenpelz Posted October 21, 2021 Author Share Posted October 21, 2021 I don't really know, if they got deleted or remain in another folder than the one the game is now writing the save files into. It might take an answer from Klei themselves I'm afraid. But well, it kinda sucks, but pulvis et umbra sumus, I guess. If they became ash and shadow, so be it...

Your saves are in the previous folder, you changed it by adding that line to launch (-persistent_storage_root c/DontStarveTogether), you could move them or if you want to get it to work how it was before all you need to do is remove that from launch options and add DST 64bit to allowed apps in your antivirus. What adding that line to launch does is just create a new save folder and use that as a new location, it doesn't copy the save files. If you want to move the save files, you can just go to your documents/klei/donotstarvetogether and copy them to the new directory which is in c/dontstarvetogether.
