Where to Find The Seven Deadly Sins: Origin Save Files & Config Settings (PC & Steam Deck)

Expert Note: The Server-Side Cloud Reality

“We have all been there. You search online for a ‘100% Save File’ because you want to skip the early grind and unlock all the characters instantly. I specifically wrote this guide because The Seven Deadly Sins: Origin file management is widely misunderstood. Because it is a live-service game, downloading a fake save file from a shady forum will either do absolutely nothing, or worse, trigger Netmarble’s anti-cheat and result in an IP ban. Even though you cannot back up your characters locally, you absolutely should back up your Config folder manually right now so you don’t lose your customized keybinds during the next major patch.”

Windows PC Save File Location (Netmarble & Steam)

(Quick Answer: Press Win + R, type %LOCALAPPDATA%, and look for the 7DSOrigin folder.)

For players who downloaded the PC client via the official Netmarble Launcher or Steam, your local configuration files are located in the hidden Windows AppData directory.

The exact file path is:
C:\Users\[Your Username]\AppData\Local\7DSOrigin\Saved\

How to navigate there quickly:

1. Premere il tasto Windows Key + R to open the Run dialog box.
2. Type %localappdata% and press Enter.
3. Scroll down and open the folder named 7DSOrigin.
4. Aperto Saved. Your local cache, logs, and .ini files are located here.

Note: If you cannot see the “AppData” folder manually, open File Explorer, click the “View” tab at the top, and check the box for “Hidden items”.

Where to Find the The Seven Deadly Sins: Origin Config File (.ini)

If you are trying to manually tweak Unreal Engine 5 graphics settings that are missing from the in-game menu (such as disabling heavy Motion Blur, forcing V-Sync off, or altering the internal resolution scale), you need to edit the configuration file.

The Config path is:
C:\Users\[Your Username]\AppData\Local\7DSOrigin\Saved\Config\WindowsClient\

How to Edit: Right-click the GameUserSettings.ini o Engine.ini file and select “Open with Notepad”.

Attenzione: Always make a copy of the .ini file before changing values. Deleting or breaking a line of code can cause the game client to crash on startup.

Steam Deck / Linux Config Location

Playing The Seven Deadly Sins: Origin on the go? The Steam Deck uses Proton to emulate the Windows file structure. Your local settings are buried inside the compatdata folder.

The Steam Deck file path is:
/home/deck/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/[Steam App ID]/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/Local/7DSOrigin/Saved/Config/WindowsClient/

Tip: You will need to know the specific Steam App ID for the game. You can find this number by looking at the game’s URL on the Steam Store website. Editing the GameUserSettings.ini here is crucial for locking the game to a stable 40 FPS on the Deck’s screen.

Troubleshooting: Account Sync & Corrupted Cache

Since you do not have to worry about Steam Cloud overwriting your local .sav files, your main troubleshooting focus should be on Cross-Save linking and clearing corrupted engine caches.
