All the Teams seem to have disappeared in my save

bicyclemadefortwo · 08-26-2021, 11:00 PM

This save has completely corrupted out of the blue. It looks like all the teams have been deleted. Is there any way of restoring them back?

This can happen if a save is corrupt.

You should hopefully be able to restore the game from the autosave function.

To restore from the automatic backup, do the following:

1) Open the game and on the start screen, click on Settings

2) Now click on the tab "Troubleshooting".

3) Click "Open folder containing saved games".

4) Now open up the league folder you're wanting to restore.

5) Then select all of the .dat files in the folder and back them up (just in case) by copying them to a temporary folder or creating a zipped file with them

6) Open the folder called "auto-save".

7) In there, select all of the ".dat" files and copy them to the league folder (the parent of the current folder) overwriting all of the ".dat" files in the league folder.

8) Now start the game and load your league

The only files that were in the autosave subfolder were the same ones that were already in the main folder. Am I out of luck?

Did you try replacing the ones in the main folder with the ones in the autofolder?

They will have the same names, that's excepted, but they should be from a different time, unless your last save happened to be from exactly when the autosave happened..

Yes, they're from the exact same time. Guess it was an auto-save that got corrupted. Guess there's no way to change one of the .dat files natively in order to restore all the teams?
