Loading a "saved" game on a new computer.

Post » Tue Jan 22, 2013 6:17 pm

Alrighty. So I have recently created a new save and was planning on taking it with me on a USB when visiting my cousins this weekend. I've found the saved file in the C:/my documents/skyrim folder.

However, I was wondering where do I paste the saved file after downloading the game on my cousin's computer?

In the same place you found it on your computer. Probably C:/my documents/my games/Skyrim/saves folder or something similar, which should have been created on his computer when he downloaded the game (he may need to make a save of his own first though).

My cousin doesn't have skyrim. He was hoping to play on my account first before he made up his mind to purchase it. So I will have to download the game from scratch. Therefore I am guessing there will not be a my documents/my games/skyrim/saves folder.
