Here's exactly where Onimusha: Way of the Sword keeps your saves on PC, how to open the folder, and how to back them up.
Save file locations
<Steam>\userdata\<SteamID>\3974650\remote\win64_save
Default Steam folder is C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam. 3974650 is the Steam App ID; open the numbered profile folder inside userdata. Some builds use App ID 2638890.
%APPDATA%\Capcom\OnimushaWotS\<user-id>
Full path: C:\Users\<YourName>\AppData\Roaming\Capcom\OnimushaWotS\<user-id> . AppData is hidden by default โ enable 'Show hidden files' in File Explorer. The Epic Games Store build uses this same Capcom\OnimushaWotS folder.
Cloud saves
Onimusha: Way of the Sword on Steam uses Steam Cloud via userdata\...\3974650\remote. If your progress rolls back after launch, it's a cloud conflict โ keep the copy with the later timestamp and let it re-upload.
How to open the save folder
- Press Win + R to open the Run box.
- Type %appdata%\Capcom\OnimushaWotS and press Enter (or open your Steam userdata\<id>\3974650\remote\win64_save folder).
- Open the save folder for your user-id.
- Copy the whole folder somewhere safe before editing, modding, or moving PCs.
Save problems & fixes
Onimusha: Way of the Sword save won't load or is corrupt
Restore a manual copy of the win64_save / OnimushaWotS folder. On Steam, disable Cloud in the game's properties, replace the local save with a good backup, then re-enable Cloud so the good copy uploads.
Onimusha progress rolled back after a Steam Cloud conflict
When Steam reports a conflict, keep the version with the LATER timestamp. Picking the older cloud copy overwrites newer local progress.
FAQ
Where is the Onimusha: Way of the Sword save file on PC?
On Steam: <Steam>\userdata\<SteamID>\3974650\remote\win64_save. Local / Epic copy: C:\Users\<YourName>\AppData\Roaming\Capcom\OnimushaWotS\<user-id>.
Does Onimusha: Way of the Sword use Steam Cloud?
Yes on Steam โ saves sync via userdata\...\3974650\remote. Back up locally before switching PCs so an older cloud copy can't overwrite new progress.
Why can't I find the OnimushaWotS folder?
It only appears after the game runs and saves once. AppData\Roaming is hidden by default, so enable 'Show hidden files' first. On Steam, look under userdata, not Documents.
