Protecting your progress in Borderlands 4 involves locating your character’s save data. These compact files, typically just kilobytes in size, can be easily duplicated without straining storage capacity.

Steam save directory for Borderlands 4

PC users will discover their save files in the customary My Games directory under My Documents. The standard pathway appears as:

C:Users[Your Windows Username]DocumentsMy GamesBorderlands 4SavedSaveGames[Number Sequence]Profilesclient

Those with relocated Documents folders should navigate through their preferred storage location via File Explorer’s This PC section.

The numbered folder within SaveGames contains your character profiles. Sequential numbering applies – your initial creation becomes 1.sav, subsequent characters follow numerically. Duplicate these .sav files or the entire directory for safety.

For the full game directory, access Steam’s Manage option, select Browse Local Files. Steam’s Back Up Game Files feature can create comprehensive backups. Regular updates to these backups prevent potential progress loss across your looting adventures.
