This is my first time posting on this forum so if I did something wrong I'm sorry.
So yesterday I reinstalled my OS (Windows 7 Ultimate x64) and my witcher 3 saves are gone. Here is what happened. When I first downloaded the game, before the reinstall, I saved the game on my other hard drive (J). The OS is on my C drive. I never touched anything on the J drive concerning the Witcher 3. When I reinstalled the OS, I redownloaded gog galaxy and It made me reinstall the game so I did that in the same place I installed it the first time. Now all of my saves are gone. I still have my time played and achievements on gog galaxy. Did my saves get deleted? Is there a cloud? Can I fix this? I submitted a ticket to support, but they haven't responded yet. Thanks for your help.
Edit: And if I happen to find the saves, how would I go about making the game recognize them?
Edit: In the settings on the client, I changed 'Install game to" to my J drive. I didn't know that it would still save things to my C drive. I would've copied my saves or moved them if I had known that the saves were still going to my C.
