Mimikyu Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 0% When Windows is reset, it Wipes the entire drive other then the recovery part of it and freshly installs a new installation of windows :C The game is saved in the same drive as windows is installed to Normally C:/User/Namegoeshere/SavedGames/PokemonReborn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can try running a data recovery program like Norton Ghost but is highly unlikely to be able to get anything back with an intentional wipe of data Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucifer Morningstar Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 Unfortunately, it sounds like the individual who did the reset chose to "Remove everything" rather than "Keep my files". "Remove everything" resets the PC to it's factory state, meaning a fresh unused Windows. https://www.howtogeek.com/132428/everything-you-need-to-know-about-refreshing-and-resetting-your-windows-8-pc/#:~:text=When you use the “Reset,the PC will be reinstalled. From what I can tell your game saves are gone. In the future I recommend backing them up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
