How can I move my borderlands 2 save files [closed] -

I'm moving stuff between two PCs and I have a save file on one for a borderlands 2 game that I've been playing. I want to put that onto the borderlands 2 game on the second PC. Problem is, that whenever I replace the save files in the second PC with my save and then start up the game, the only available option is to start a new game. It overwrites the save files I give it and makes a new blank one. Any ideas?



Best Answer

Use Steam Cloud

Steam Cloud has arguably been designed for exactly this purpose. If you don't want steam to sync your saves all the time, you can turn it on for just a few minutes until Steam has synced with first the old PC and the new PC afterwards. You can also clear the Steam Cloud afterwards.

Note: There is no reason not to use Steam Cloud, since you possess a legal copy of the game. I know that you do because otherwise you couldn't be asking this question here.

    Where are Borderlands 2 save files located?

    Just like on the Windows edition of the game, inside the SaveData folder will be a folder named after your Steam ID, within which you can find your Borderlands 2 save files.

    Answer 2

    So I've figured it out! When you open up the game (going to the main menu), Borderlands will automatically create a save folder if none is found. It will be a random number folder. Copy all the save info from the save folder you want to use, into the one the computer created then restart the game. Voila! It worked for me so I'm happy :D

    Answer 3

    Ok, You go into documents, go into my games, go into borderlands, willow-game, save-data, random numbers, then there are all you save files, copy them all onto a USB. Then go into the random number folder, then copy the save files.
