Football Manager 2024 stores its save files at %USERPROFILE%\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2024\games on Windows. Checkpoint64 already knows this folder — it backs it up automatically and keeps earlier versions, so a corrupted or overwritten save is one click from restored.
Where Football Manager 2024 saves are stored
- Windows —
%USERPROFILE%\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2024\games
or%LOCALAPPDATA%\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2024\cloud
Where two locations are listed, which one is in use depends on the install (Checkpoint64 checks them in order and uses the first that exists).
How to open the save folder

%USERPROFILE%\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2024\games, and press Enter.
