The cloud backup Steam Cloud forgot. Checkpoint64 is almost here

Never lose a save again.

Lost a save to a dead drive, a corrupted file, or a co-op partner who saved over your night's progress? Checkpoint64 is the tool built so that never happens again, and it's free to download.

Why it exists

Steam Cloud is great, for the games that opt in. It doesn't cover your emulator saves, your heavily-modded worlds, or most co-op campaigns. Those are exactly the saves you'd be gutted to lose. Checkpoint64 backs up all of them.
Made for myself and a core group of friends. With life in the way we where not always online at once at the same time to host the game. Checkpoint64 was born to fix that gap.

What it does

Automatic backups, every 30 seconds. Only the files that actually changed get uploaded, so it stays light and quiet while you play.
Full version history + one-click restore. Corrupted a save? Saved over a good one? Open Versions, pick any past point, hit Restore & it's back on disk in seconds.
60+ games and 7 emulators out of the box. RetroArch, Dolphin, PCSX2, DuckStation, PPSSPP, RPCS3 and Cemu. Pick the game and it already knows where the saves live. No more file-hunting.
Co-op saves done right. Share one world with a team; an ownership lock means only one person holds it at a time, so nobody clobbers anybody — with a logbook of who saved what, when.

Free to download. Pay once for more

The base app is free, and the free plan is a real one: install it and start protecting saves today. Need more space, or room for more co-op teams? Unlock it with a one-time purchase, pay once and it's yours for good. No subscriptions, ever.

Get started

Hit Install, it's free. Back up your first game in about a minute; we'll find where it hides its saves for you.
Join the Save Keepers on Discord: discord.gg/kxeYwuuHEn come tell us the one save you'd be wrecked to lose.
If Checkpoint64 saves a run for you, leave a review. Honest reviews are how other save-losers find it.
