Transport Fever 3 Save File Location (Windows, macOS & Linux)

Transport Fever 3 stores its save files at C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\<your Steam ID>\3493540\local 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 Transport Fever 3 saves are stored

  • Windows — C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\<your Steam ID>\3493540\local
    or %APPDATA%\Transport Fever 3
  • macOS — ~/Library/Application Support/Transport Fever 3
  • Linux — ~/.local/share/Transport Fever 3

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).

  • macOS — in Finder press Cmd+Shift+G (Go to Folder) and paste ~/Library/Application Support/Transport Fever 3.

Backing up Transport Fever 3 saves automatically
