I have a new computer I want to move my almost completed LF 1 to. I have been able to copy the game to a card and open it up, but there are no save files there. What can I do?

The saves files are here:

Windows XP:
C:\Documents and Settings\[your name]\Application Data\LaxiusForce

Windows Vista/Windows 7:
C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Roaming\LaxiusForce

you can copy them from there :)

Nope. I have Windows 8 on both computers. The new one is a notebook for traveling.

You'll probably need to find folder options, under the 'view' tab hopefully, and enable "show hidden files and folders first, otherwise the folder will stay hidden from you.

After that, it sounds like Windows 8 uses: C:/Windows/User/(your name)/AppData, or possibly C:/Users/(your name)/AppData. If neither of those work, you can try using run (Win Key + R), to search for %appdata%

Hopefully something in there works, I'm still running XP and it sounds like Windows 7 is the way to go when XP support drops, so Windows 8 is probably a long way off for me.

Thank you for your suggestions. I will try it again. By the way, I really like Windows 8. It just takes some getting used to then its smooth sailing!
