MelbVictory Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Hi Looking for some assiustance or advice. The partition of my HDD which my save game resided was full. I temporarily shifted all my My Documents' folder, where save game lived, to a relatively empty partition. Couple days later I load up FM12 to play and ALL save games are gone from My Documents (whish is now on the other, less crowded partition). I have searched the whole HDD drive for *.FM extensions (is that right for saves in FM) and found no FM12 saves but tatics I have for example. (I did find FM11 and FM10 saves in the same My Documents folder that was shifted - why are they OK). I have also run a deleted file recovery program and come up with nothing. Should I let ghosts rest? Or what else can I do - thinking of doing a Windows Recovery thing - whats it called, where you can shift back to an old timepoint and start again? Would that help? BTW, Windows Vista. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anderson's Left Peg Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Yeah I would suggest trying the system recovery but apart from that you have tried from the sounds of it everything I could think of unless FM itself could find it from that folder you put it in? Other than that you have akread tried everything I could think of suggesting! So bad luck my fellow FM'er Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MelbVictory Posted February 22, 2012 Author Share Posted February 22, 2012 Yes. Well i opened FM, and couldnt load last game. Load game had no files. Was a cracking save too - newgen at Southampton popping them in at goal a game in EPL. I bet if it were a Pony save game it would all still be there.

MelbVictory Posted March 7, 2012 Author Share Posted March 7, 2012 Anyway, i tried to the Windows restore point, oldest point I could find. But no luck. How does a save game file just disappear? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
robzilla Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Yes. Well i opened FM, and couldnt load last game. Load game had no files. That's to be expected if you moved the save games to a different folder - FM won't know where you've put them. I can't believe your files just disappeared, you must surely have dropped them in a different folder or something. Remember that when you search in Vista/Win7 it may not be searching your whole computer - only indexed locations - so the files might still be around somewhere. This is just really odd.
