sadly, iv gotten used to many many... many saves that have gotten corrupted on this site. But one type iv been wondering about for a long while now. This happens on several different games over a long stretch of time. - Ill make a new save. It saves. I load the save back up. It loads up just fine. BUT, if i close the browser then bring it back up and go right back to the same game and load that same file.. its corrupted and wont load. .. why? Its not even a minute of time in between the two load attempts. Nothings change about the game in that time. It feels like something happens when the browser closes maybe? Tho i dont see how closing the browser can corrupt save files. Why does that happen?

Can you be more specific? Browser? Version of the game? Do you play incognito? Also IP address may be needed

Actually, i cant be a whole lot more specific. Its so random. It might happen with a number of different games. But it can happen with one game, then a bit later, it doesnt happen any more. And vice vcera.

This time i was playing STWA: Unbroken. The last two save files are always corrupted after closing browser. I have to load up a previous save. play it again, make new saves, every single time. But if i save a new file and then load it back up then it works fine. But as soon as the browser closes and i reopen, those same new saves are corrupted. Im on firefox atm, but browser doesnt seem to matter.

Another oddity.. similar to the last one..

Some games, certain saves always disappear. Why?

'On My Way Home' has had this happen a few times. 'Somewhere I belong' it happens quite often. Ill be playing, make some saves near the end of the version. But every time i come back to check if the game was updated, those saves are gone. And i have to go back to a previous save and redo a portion of the game. But even if i make new saves again, they are still gone next time. Just disappeared. But only those specific few save files. The previous ones are still there. And the game usually hasnt been updated during this.
