Where are VisualBoyAdvance's save files stored? - Man Wearing Pink Polo Shirt With Text Overlay

I am using the VisualBoyAdvance emulator and I am trying to find the save file location (not the save state location, the one from the actual game.)

The game is Final Fantasy VI if it helps. I have looked everywhere and can't seem to find anything.



Best Answer

I just tested this one and the save file is located in the same folder as where your ROM files are. The extension is .sav. A save using VBA, not in-game, ends with the extension .sgm.

    Answer 2

    The save files are in your ROMs folder and it has the .sgm extension or the .save extension. They both must have the same name as the ROM to work.

    • romname.gba or romname.zip <-- Rom File.
    • romname.sgm <-- Quick Save File.
    • romname.sav (VBA 1.7.2) or romname.sa1 (VBA 1.7.2 Link) <-- Normal Save File.
