I've been replaying the SP campaign on brutal recently through the archives but on my first playthrough, I did not unlock the secret mission, so it is not present on the archive. Thankfully, I had some saves of my first media blitz runthroughs on hard in the ''unsaved'' folder so I could redo it and complete the secret mission for the achievement. However, these saved have been auto deleted now and I can only access the mission through the archives, which does not unlock the secret mission. Is it possible to download a save file of the mission, so I can do the secret level on brutal for the achievement or do I need to redo the whole campaign again?

Are you sure it doesn't unlock the mission? I did it the exact same way. You have to complete media blitz with the secret mission i think. On my first try i just collected the secret mission, saved and quitted which was wrong.
Then i tried again with completing media blitz and it showed up for me in the archive.Otherwise i can't help sorry.

Hm strange... did the achievement "secret mission unlocked" pop up at the end? I guess you can find some savegames with google but i don't know if it's working.

It said ''secret found'' at the end of the mission but did not appear in archive.

You can unlock from the archive, but you need to do it on a save before you go to Char.

For future reference, though, I don't think the campaign saves get deleted. They don't show up in game, but they're still there if you go to Documents -> Starcraft II -> blah blah blah.

EDIT: or you said you checked the "unsaved" folder? I still have saves from like, the fourth mission up until gates of hell, so you must have played a lot of missions since getting to char...

Hmm... gave me an idea >=D

What if someone played the campaign on brutal difficult and on each mission saved the game literally seconds before victory. If someone else reloaded from all those saves, would they get the achievement for playing through the campaign on brutal?

I think blizzard is smart enough to check which account the saves came from - I doubt that that would work.

Not only does it appear to work based off what he said there are also other abuses in single player so don't give Blizzard too much credit. There is abusing research money for infinite money by replaying missions which seems to be confirmed and supposedly you can beat a mission over and over on brutal with a save file before victory to bug the brutal victory counter.
