I'm getting a bit confused at the moment and have no idea what I am currently missing.

I have two installations of SRHK on two different computers.
One is running Win 7 Enterprise the other one Win 7 Home Premium. Both 64bits.

I installed the game using GOG Galaxy on both computers.
I now wanted to transfer the savefiles from the Home Prem computer to the Enterprise one.

The supposed location for the save files should be:
C:/Users/*active user*/AppData/Local/Harebrained Schemes/Shadowrun Returns/Saves
I found the save-files on the first computer without any issue..
-Attached picture of both save folder locations-

I copied these files from the first computer to the second one.

But now when I start SRHK on the new computer, the game wont find the savefiles.
And I'm bit clueless and no idea if I'm missing something.

I assume you haven't reconfigured the user directory location on the second machine?

I also assume you copied all the files (*.sav and *.srt)?

I would just start the game on the second machine, then immediately create a save and exit. Then see where the save files ends up on the second computer - if they're not in that directory then they must get created somewhere, so you should be able to find them by searching for the most recent created files on your PC. Then copy the files to the correct location.

I should have thought about it earlier, on the 2nd pc I have actually reconfigured the 'my documents' folder to a network drive. But I did miss that(just part of?) appdata would be moved as well.
As I found other files locally saved directly on %appdata%.

I just looked for all *.sav and found the correct path on my network drive instead.
And now it worked just fine to copy the saves from the old pc.

Thanks :)
