discussion Help ID'ing Renpy Folder by Name/Number

[Zazas]

So sometimes I come across a game in my Renpy save data folder that isn't easily identifiable. I try to search on Google and sometimes get lucky but not for this one. I have the habit of deleting games that I'm not interested in continuing and if I delete the game, I also delete the save folder. But I don't want to accidentally delete a folder for a game that's merely waiting for an update. So I thought I'd start this up looking for help on it and if someone else has a folder that needs clarification they can put it here too.

Only one I currently don't know what the game is Three-1653671486. It's Not Going Back which isn't listed on here so no wonder there was no hits.

well, you can install the Ren'Py SDK, create a quick project, then go to the folder of that game, copy all the saves and auto-saves, and paste them into the project you created. after that, load the project, and you should be able to see the thumbnails of the saves. that might help you figure out what game it is

I'll try to do this, if my tech illiteracy don't fuck me

Found out the name by doing the save file editor method, thanks for the suggestion anyway man.
