Vampire Survivors stores its save files at %APPDATA%\Vampire_Survivors\saves 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 Vampire Survivors saves are stored
- Windows —
%APPDATA%\Vampire_Survivors\saves
or%APPDATA%\Vampire_Survivors_EGS
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
- Windows — press Win+R, paste
%APPDATA%\Vampire_Survivors\saves, and press Enter.
Backing up Vampire Survivors saves automatically
- Install Checkpoint64 (free) and pick Vampire Survivors — the save path above is already preset.
- Auto-backup watches the folder and uploads a new version whenever it changes, keeping full history.
- Restore any version in one click if a save corrupts, gets overwritten, or a mod breaks it.
Sharing Vampire Survivors saves with friends
Vampire Survivors has co-op, so the folder above usually lives on one person's PC — whoever hosts. When they're offline nobody else can carry on, and if two people play separately, one session quietly overwrites the other.
Checkpoint64 lets a small group pass one Vampire Survivors world around instead of renting a dedicated server. Whoever plays next takes a server-enforced lock, pulls the latest save, plays, and pushes it back; everyone else stays read-only until the lock frees up, so nobody saves over anybody. Recent versions are kept, so a bad session is one restore away. The dedicated server alternative guide walks through the full take-turns flow.
