Flash Game Save Location Windows 10

  1. Flash Download For Windows 10

Using a flash drive on Windows 10 is super easy, all you need to do is plug your drive into the USB port and your good to go. Flash drives don't require any additional drivers and work great with all operating systems. Managing one on Windows 10 is very easy thanks to the simple Windows 10 interface.

I'd like to grab a copy of a save file I have for a flash game (to be fair, there's at least 20 hours of gaming in that save).

I assume that different browsers and different operating systems do their own thing, but to know how different browser/OS combos do things would be useful extra information.

I use google chrome and I'm running Ubuntu 10.04.

  • Linux: ~/.macromedia/Flash_Player/

  • Windows: %AppData%MacromediaFlash Player

  • Mac OS X: ~/Library/Preferences/Macromedia/Flash Player/

Plugin behavior, and therefore Flash LSO location, is browser-independent most of the time.

Also see Local Shared Objects on Wikipedia.

On Ubuntu 12.04, I found Google Chrome's flash plugin also stores LSOs in

More specifically, I found my game saves in

user145215user145215

Another folder to look at is:

  • ~/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/Default/File System/p/00

Those last two folders might be called differently because of randomization, but I found that, even after I cleaned my cache a few times, looked at the locations of the above mentioned comments, there was still a very big file with no special name or file extension stored there.

It would've been very unlikely that Chrome need this to function.

After installing stand-alone flash games such as Machinarium, Dino Run SE, and Space Rubbish (all of which are great games by the way) I find that my game saves keep disappearing.

I have read how cleaning programs like CCleaner can havethiseffect. I have CCleaner installed, but do not have it set to run automatically. I have found that whenever I start and then quit IE, my saves disappear. I also run Firefox, but it seems to have no effect on my saves.

My question is: How can I stop IE from deleting these local Flash caches?

As a side note: Do any other browsers have this sort of behaviour by default?

Make sure you allow flash to save data to your hard drive.

Right click the flash game and select Setting (or Global settings). Under the 'Storage' tab, make sure 'Allow sites to save information on this computer' is checked.

Adobe also has a page you can use to set flash settings: http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager03.html

Have you got IE set to 'Delete browsing history on exit' and, in the Delete options, got the 'Cookies' option selected?

This will delete the game saves if they are stored in cookies.

Asked this a while ago here.

Basically if you have any sort of tool installed to clean up your browser temp files on exit, then you'll blow away your save games. @CheeseSucker's comments are valid. I have the issue while running BetterPrivacy in FF.
