Frequently asked questions
Which folder do I copy to back up Stray?
Copy the full Hk_project\Saved folder. SaveGames holds progress and Config\WindowsNoEditor holds graphics and input settings.
Can I reset Stray graphics without losing progress?
Yes. Delete or rename GameUserSettings.ini in WindowsNoEditor and keep SaveGames untouched. The game builds a fresh config on next launch.
