How can I find my PPSSPP saves in Ubuntu?
I am using the "PPSSPP" PSP emulator in Ubuntu but I don't know where the save files are, so I can't create a backup copy.
Does anyone know a method to do so?
Best Answer
The saves are at /home/"user"/.config/ppsspp/PSP/SAVEDATA.
.config is a hidden folder so you need to check the necessary options to enter without without the console, right click at your home folder -> "Show hidden files" or something like that on Debian using Cinnamon.
It's different from Windows, where the saved games' folder is in the same folder of the executable. I didn't compile my PPSSPP and I was surprised that I needed to go looking for the saves (PPSSPP v1.5.4).
Hope this helps.
