Season 1 savegames are gone
Hi,
I completed the first season and finished the 400 days DLC. Now I wanted to play Season 2, but it was unable to import my save games.
I looked in the folder:
C:\Users\Username\Documents\Telltale Games\The Walking Dead
but there is only another folder called 'SyncFs' and a prefs.prop and no save files.
When I started Season 1 I could however load my save game.
I read somwhere that I should move the prefs.prop to the folder here:
F:\SteamLibrary\SteamApps\common\The Walking Dead\Pack\default (where the game is installed)
But I think I did something wrong. When I now enter Season 1, it shows me no save games and I have to start from the beginning.
I hope somebody can help me.
I have Win 7 64bit and the Steam version of the game, if that helps.
I also used the tool:

The prefs.prop is not supposed to be in
F:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\The Walking Dead\Pack\default
please rename it to prefs.prop.bak to deactivate it.
Did you play the season 1 in win95 or win98/me compatibility mode?
If so, please rename the original savegame folder
%USERPROFILE%\Documents\Telltale Games\The Walking Dead\
to anything else.
Then copy the "The Walking Dead" folder from
%PUBLIC%\Documents\Telltale Games\
to
%USERPROFILE%\Documents\Telltale Games\
Yes I had to play with win98/me compatibility mode.
I did everything you said and it worked.
Thank you very much
