Editor’s View: Why This Matters
I specifically wrote this guide because Unity games store saves in the LocalLow folder, which is often confused with Local or Roaming by players used to Unreal Engine games. Even if you play casually, please backup your save folder manually before entering Borg space. Don’t let a glitch end your journey.”
There is nothing worse than navigating the USS Voyager through 50 sectors of Borg space, managing your crew’s morale perfectly, only to lose your progress to a corrupted save file or a cloud sync error. Whether you want to manually backup your “Ironman” run, transfer your Captain’s Log to a new PC, or edit the config file to give yourself more starting Dilithium, you first need to find where the data is hidden on your drive.
Below is the exact file path for Star Trek: Voyager – Across the Unknown on Windows and Steam Deck, along with a safer, automated method to manage your backups.
