Players are diving into Starfield in Early Access, and there has been a lot of news already. A few critical things early on are the location of the Saved Files and the App Data.
With Starfield proving to be an instant hit, you must know how to find your system’s Save and Config files. You may face some hurdles while looking for the files mentioned above on your PC, so the following guide will help players regarding location and the exact spots.
Starfield: Save File, Config File, and App Data Location
Players looking for the save file Location for Starfield should follow this path:
- Get in your File Explorer and go to This PC

Players who have found the Saved Files and want to look for the Config File, Here is the Config File Location for Starfield on PC: C:\Users\[Your Username]\Documents\My Games\Starfield\.
