Where are the Game save files located in PC? I have installed Bluestack on my PC and I began by installing a game called Townsmen and I played nicely. However, I want to backup the files that are created by the Bluestack program since I regularly restore my PC due to it get infected with Adwares and Malwares. I do not want to start the game again from scratch.

I know the default location for the installation is C:\Program Files\BlueStacks in Windows XP and some of the settings are stored in C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data. But I can't find that particular file with the name Townsmen.

Where &amp; how can I access them from the PC?
You can do that manually from the Bluestack app player by doing the following
1 - Backup the game saves :

Download ES File Explorer from the app store/Play Store

Open ES File Explorer and go to the Root Folder (click on &quot;/&quot; in the navigation bar)

Go to /data folder, and then open the folder /data inside it (final path: /data/data)

Now you can see a lot of folders name like com.android.something or com.something.somethingelse. Scroll down and look for a folder named com.hg.townsmen6. Long press on it and then click on the three dots (on the bottom right corner of the screen) and choose Copy to.




After clicking OK, you will get a toast notification that the copy went successful.

Now go back to your desktop (Windows desktop) and go to this path C:\ProgramData\BlueStacks\UserData\SharedFolder, you will find your folder there. Save it somewhere safe.


2 - Restore the game's progress after a fresh install do the following :
