Here is a guide on how to retrieve your corrupted save files in The Planet Crafter.
Retrieve the hidden backup file
Sometimes, It can happen that a savefile gets corrupted.
If the computer crash while saving, or the power goes down at a bad moment, a save file can get corrupted and completly lost.
To avoid the loss of all your save file, there is a second, hidden backup file on your system.
- Do not launch another game or load another save file
- Go in this directory : “C:\Users\{YOUR-NAME}\AppData\LocalLow\MijuGames\Planet Crafter\”
- Find the file Backup.json
- Copy and paste it in the same folder
- Rename it (example : “Survival-Restore.json”)
After that, relaunch the game, and you should see the save file in the list.
After you have checked the new save file is working, you can remove the old corrupted save file from the save folder.
This Backup file is created every 15 minutes when you play the game.
