Accessing Backup Save Files

Then you copy all the files from the most recent folder to the activate save folder:

C:\Users\username\Documents\My Games\SnowRunner\base\storage\sd6f4e86g1d6s1gd5 (this long code will be different on your computer)

After this, restart the game, and select local save when asked about cloud or local save by Epic.
