Hey all,

Save Games Path is

%UserProfile%\Documents\Shadow of the Tomb Raider\<user-id>\


You missed the "Shadow of the Tomb Raider" Folder.


The "remote" Steam Folder listed does not even exist

<Steam-folder>\userdata\<user-id>\750920\remote\


There is a file here <Steam-folder>\userdata\<user-id>\750920\


It is a text readable file, with a name of 8 numbers, and no extension.

It contains a single huge hexadecimal word with a length of 5194 characters, no idea what it's significance may be

Nice catch, dunno how that passed me by. It's a bit weird that the \remote\ folder doesn't exist (it doesn't for me either) because that's typically the local storage and copies of the save files for Steam Cloud, ergo it pretty much always exists for Steam games with support for cloud storage.

This game just keeps surprising me, I guess.

Regarding the 8-digit file with no extension, that's the offline token of Denuvo. You'll find that it stores a uniquely name file per version, so e.g. "2150591354" is the 48 hours pre-release version while "2531766803" is the version that just dropped. It's safe to remove older versions of these files, but not the latest one as that will force Denuvo to renew the token on the next launch of the game (ergo, it will need an online connection).

SaveGames Not in Steam User Data, settings in Registry

I tried to edit the entry, but the linux settings don't show up in the editor, or preview, so I don't want to mess it up.

Settings are here HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Eidos Montreal\Shadow of the Tomb Raider


Saveganea %UserProfile%\Documents\Shadow of the Tomb Raider\<user-id>\

Inside that folder I have profile.dat save1.dat … to … save5.dat save202.dat save204.dat save206.dat

From glossary Steam has multiple user ids, but the one most commonly used by users is the steamID64 which contains 17 numbers and starts with 7656.

Note: My Documents\Shadow of the Tomb Raider\<user-id>\ folder is 17 numbers, and starts with 7656. So I assume it's the UserID referred to in the glossary. My Steam\UserData\<user-id>\ is completely different, only 8 numbers, and does not start with 7656.

Benchmark results do appear as text documents here %UserProfile%\Documents\Shadow of the Tomb Raider\

The Steam\userdata\<user-id>\ uses the SteamID3 value, which is the SteamID in a 32-bit format, I believe. The Documents\Shadow of the Tomb Raider\<user-id>\ uses the SteamID64, which is the SteamID in a 64-bit format, hence the difference.

They're both referred to as <user-id> in the paths, though.
