Does a Auto-Save Program Still Exist?

Miss launchers like Chaos Launcher or Penguin Plug cause they would save all your games automatically. I was wondering if there is any working program that has the same feature, would really appreciate the recommendation if one exists.

It is called Starcraft Remastered. It autosaves every replay. Splurge and spend the $20.

SC Remastered already auto saves all your games.

Doesn't work for me anymore otherwise I probably wouldnt be asking. Ever since about 6 months ago it just doesn't save my games and you used to be able to go into the profile and watch all your games played but that doesn't work anymore either.

Agreed such a program woudl be very useful, especially as I really hate the way SCR saves your replays (difficult to organise)....

This is where they should be saved. M is the User different for u probably. Did you try the reinstalling as obvious as it sounds?

There's clearly an issue on ur part. The original replay folders were in the installation directory.

SCR changed that. Please post ur solution when u find it. I believe u can fix ur SCR!


There are no alternatives to my knowledge. Also first time I hear about penguin.


Suggestions:

1) You play a second on a map u've never played before. Then you copy the map name and add .rep at the end:

Bottleneck.rep and search for that file. If it was saved automatically it should pop up. Then you just click the file and Open file location

2) You can also try creating AutoSave folder if there is none. I know in the past some installations did not create Maps folder for example.

Only reason I don't want to reinstall is because I don't want to reset all my hotkeys. Do you know if hotkeys are saved on the server?

No idea... But u can take a screenshot of ur hotkeys or snap a pic with ur smartphone. And read my revised post. There may be alternatives to reinstalling.

The hotkeys are saved online. No need to worry about that. I would rather worry about any maps you want to keep. Both in the Documents/StarCraft/maps folder, and in the installation folder. This includes replays.

Think that's an old file from before SC:R, or at the very early stages of it. Hotkeys are stored in CSettings.json now (in Documents\Starcraft\). This file is what stores all the settings, and is synced. It also won't be deleted if you uninstall the game.

I would guess the problem here is just the changed folder from what it was pre-1.17 or 1.18 (which was a necessary change, Windows 7+ really locked down what programs can write to Program Files, and running StarCraft as Administrator is a bad idea).

If I didn't remove my replays, it would be a few GBs in my computer.
