How to Move Saves From Suyu to a Different Computer?
If you would rather just move all the saves for all of your games from Suyu you can do the following. This is generally the process I follow, just be careful not to overwrite save data with the wrong files if you choose this option. You may overwrite new saves with old ones if you aren't paying attention.
Open File Explorer on your computer, then navigate to the following location on your computer.
C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming
Here you will see the Suyu folder near the bottom of the list. Just copy the folder and paste it into the same location on your other device that you want to move stuff to. Just make sure that you have Suyu installed first. Alternatively, you can open Start and search %appdata% and it will take you to the same location. As we mentioned earlier you do need to be very careful when moving these files between computers because you may accidentally overwrite newer saves with older ones. I’ve accidentally done this before and it’s not a lot of run having to restart things. Especially in games like Pokemon Arceus which has a lot of random chance involved.
Where are saved games stored in Suyu? How to find Saved Games in Suyu.
The quickest and easiest way to find Saved Game files in Suyu is to do the following.
-
First, open Suyu, then select the game that you want to get your save data from.
-
Next, right-click on the game and select Open Save Data Location.
-
This will open the folder that contains all the saved data for the specific game.
-
So if you just want to copy the data for this specific game you can now copy and paste the file 3 files to a new location or the exact same location on another device.
That’s all there is to it.
Can you Copy Saves from Suyu and move them to a different computer?
Suyu is an awesome emulator that recently replaced Yuzu when it was shut down. It functions almost identically to Yuzu so if you haven't yet switched from Yuzu to Suyu the process is really easy and you can pretty much just copy save files across from both.
