Steam mods/saves

Post by synyster31 »

Can someone help me out i'm going mad trying to solve this!

I'm trying to install a mod but I can't for the life of me find the location of the folder where the save games, mods, etc are. I've tried both the steamapps/factorio folder and user/appdata/roaming folder but I can't find anything in either :?: :?: :?:

I have even tried saviing a game with a name and then using windows search and it still doesnt show up!

Open the run dialog by pressing Win+R and enter %appdata%\Factorio

If that does not work, post the contents of the Steam\SteamApps\common\Factorio\config-path.cfg file here.

That worked, thankyou!

So why when I navigate through file explorer (D:\Users\Home\AppData\Roaming) does nothing show up in the roaming folder, but when I search with that term it all shows up?
