Sinking 50 hours into building your martial arts sect in Eastern Era, only to lose your disciples to a corrupted save file, a bad mod, or a Steam Cloud sync error, is devastating.
Whether you want to manually back up your sect’s progression before a massive rival invasion, transfer your save data to a new PC, or modify the configuration file to uncap your frame rate, you first need to know exactly where the Unity engine stores its data on your hard drive. Below are the exact, verified file paths for Eastern Era across Steam, Epic Games, Xbox Game Pass, and Steam Deck, along with the safest way to automate your save backups.

Expert Note: The Cloud Sync Danger
“We have all been there. You are deep into Eastern Era, just about to upgrade your Main Hall to the maximum level and face a major sect invasion, and your PC crashes. When you relaunch, Steam Cloud accidentally overwrites your local save with an older version. It is a management gamer’s worst nightmare.
I specifically wrote this guide because Eastern Era uses the Unity engine, meaning its save management is tucked away in the LocalLow folder rather than the standard Documents directory. Even if you don’t plan on using trainers or mods to get infinite Spirit Stones, please back up your Saves folder manually right now. Don’t lose your elite disciples and learn this lesson the hard way.”

Windows PC Save File Location (Steam & Epic Games)
(Quick Answer: Press Win + R, type %appdata%, navigate back to the LocalLow folder, and look for FunYooGames.)
For players who purchased the game on Steam, Epic Games Store, or GOG, the save files are generated by the Unity engine and located in the hidden Windows AppData directory.
C:\Users\YourUsername\AppData\LocalLow\FunYooGames\Eastern Era\Saves\How to navigate there quickly:
Premere il tasto Windows Key + R to open the Run dialog box.
Type
%appdata% and press Enter. (This opens the Roaming folder).In the folder path address bar at the top, click on AppData to go back one folder level.
Aprire la sezione LocaleBasso folder.
Scroll down and open the FunYooGames folder, then Eastern Era.
Aprire la sezione Saves folder. Your sect progression files are located here.
💡 Note:
If you cannot see the AppData folder manually from your user directory, open File Explorer, click the View tab at the top, and check the box for Hidden items.
Xbox Game Pass / Microsoft Store Save Location
If you are playing Eastern Era via PC Game Pass, Microsoft encrypts the save data and stores it in a completely different, highly protected system folder.
C:\Users\YourUsername\AppData\Local\Packages\FunYooGames.EasternEra_8wekyb3d8bbwe\SystemAppData\wgs\Inside the wgs (Windows Game Saves) folder, you will see folders with long alphanumeric strings. These are your encrypted save files. Backing these up manually is incredibly difficult because the file names are randomized and lack standard save extensions. (See the XMODhub Save Manager section below for an easier Game Pass solution).
Where to Find the Eastern Era Config File
If you are trying to manually tweak graphics settings that are missing from the in-game menu (such as disabling Motion Blur, forcing V-Sync off, or altering UI scaling for better sect management), you need to edit the configuration file.
C:\Users\YourUsername\AppData\LocalLow\FunYooGames\Eastern Era\Settings.jsonHow to Edit: Right-click the Settings.json file and select Open with Notepad.
🔥 Warning:
Always make a copy of the configuration file before changing values. Deleting or breaking a line of code can cause the Unity engine to crash on startup.
Steam Deck / Linux Save Location
Playing Eastern Era on the go to manage your cultivation routines? The Steam Deck uses Proton to emulate the Windows file structure. Your save files are buried inside the compatdata folder.
/home/deck/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/YourSteamAppID/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/LocalLow/FunYooGames/Eastern Era/Saves/Troubleshooting: Steam Cloud Sync Errors
If your sect progression keeps disappearing or reverting to an older version, Steam Cloud might be conflicting with your local Unity files.
✦
Right-click Eastern Era in your Steam Library and select Proprietà.
✦
Under the General tab, toggle Steam Cloud to OFF.
✦
Play the game, force a manual save in your sect headquarters, and then exit.
✦
You can safely turn Steam Cloud back on, and it should upload your newest local save to the servers.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can I transfer my Eastern Era save file to another PC?
A: Yes. For Steam/Epic users, simply copy the entire contents of the Saves folder mentioned above onto a USB drive, and paste it into the exact same directory path on your new computer.
Q: What happens if I accidentally delete the config file?
A: Don’t panic. If you delete Settings.json, the game engine will automatically generate a brand new, default config file the next time you launch Eastern Era. All your graphics and audio settings will just revert to their defaults.
Q: Can I get banned for modifying my single-player save file?
A: No. Modifying your local save file (e.g., giving yourself more Spirit Stones via a hex editor or trainer) in a single-player environment will not result in a ban. Just ensure you do not use modified files if the game introduces official competitive multiplayer servers.
