Solved: 8 Years, 1 Month ago Deleted Amnesia Documents Folder

Hey, I accidently deleted the folder "Amnesia" that was in my documents folder. I'm sure that's where all the profiles where. I still have my profile, but does this limit me when it comes to scripting or something like that?

Nope. It doesn't.

most probably the game was not run as an administrator at a system that required it so the Amnesia folder that you say it still there should be at C:\Users\-YOUR-USER-NAME-\AppData\Local\VirtualStore

Deleting it will cause the game to create default settings when started again. This means you'll have to set up the development environment again if you want the debug menu. Also, all your save files would have been erased as well, if you were relying on those for your development.

It seems I didn't delete it... it appears and then doesn't appear. Weird.

The virtual store is for files located in Program Files, the Windows folder and probably other sensitive folders; and folders don't just disappear and reappear. You sure you're not confusing the deletion and re-creation of the files with disappearing and reappearing?

From what I understood he says that although there are no save files at the correct Documents folder, the saves are still there in-game. In that case, the files can be found at the VirtualStore folder. Maybe I didn't properly understand the problem though.
