About GameSave Manager
GameSave Manager finds the save data of installed PC games and lets you back it up, restore it or move it to another machine. It relies on a database of supported games, which is updated separately from the program itself.
It suits players who reinstall Windows, switch computers or want a copy of their progress outside a launcher's own cloud sync. Version 3.1.580.0 was released in May 2026, and the game database was last updated in September 2026.
