Saving the game.

[davenwolf]

First let me say that Machinarium is awesome. I purchased a copy last friday and the whole family in madly in love with the game. We have one dilemma though! After enjoying the game for about 4 hours and numerous saves we shut the pc down and went to bed. The next morning I ran as i always do a program called CCleaner to get rid of junk files and the like. The only problem is that it wiped my saves as well  . Can anyone tell the the path to the save file so I can exclude it from being wiped?
thanks Davenwolf

Sorry to read of your lost save games, davenwolf.

The subject of CCleaner wiping Machinarium saved games has previously been addressed on this forum in great detail.
Use Search and type in "CCleaner" to see the full extent.

Meanwhile, for now, just:

1. Open ccleaner.
2. Options
3. "Exclude"
4. Add Folder
5. Search the save path, eg C:\Users{USERNAME}\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia\Flash Player\#SharedObjects\{RANDOMWORD}\localhost\Program Files\Machinarium\machinarium.exe
check if the box is in | *.* |
6. Accept
5. Ready now can use ccleaner and do not erase your saved game.
