Hell Let Loose Config File Location (Windows)

Hell Let Loose stores its config files at %LOCALAPPDATA%\HLL\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor on Windows. That folder holds the settings rather than a save: keybinds, sensitivity, video options, the layout you arranged. Checkpoint64 already knows it, backs it up automatically and keeps every version, so a config that got reset is one click from restored.

Good to know: Very useful for reseting after crashes

Where Hell Let Loose settings are stored

  • Windows — %LOCALAPPDATA%\HLL\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor
    or %LOCALAPPDATA%\HLL\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor

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 config folder

  • Windows — press Win+R, paste %LOCALAPPDATA%\HLL\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor, and press Enter.

Backing up Hell Let Loose settings automatically

  1. Install Checkpoint64 (free) and pick Hell Let Loose — the config path above is already preset.
  2. Auto-backup watches the folder and uploads a new version whenever it changes, keeping full history.
  3. Restore any version in one click after a patch resets your settings, a file verification restores the defaults, or you move to a new PC.

Common questions

Where does Hell Let Loose store config files on Windows?

Hell Let Loose keeps its settings at %LOCALAPPDATA%\HLL\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor or %LOCALAPPDATA%\HLL\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor. Checkpoint64 already knows this path and backs the folder up automatically.

Can I back up Hell Let Loose settings automatically?

Yes — Checkpoint64 watches Hell Let Loose's config folder and uploads a new version every time it changes, so you get automatic backups with full version history. Free download for Windows, macOS, and Linux.

How do I restore my Hell Let Loose settings?

With Checkpoint64, open the config folder's version list and restore any earlier version in one click — it puts those exact files back, so every keybind and video setting comes back together. Without a backup there is nothing to go back to: the game rewrote the folder with its defaults.
