Some Escape from Tarkov players are dealing with complete profile wipe-out errors. This means all their progress has been lost forever. This has happened to a few players and the game developers had suggested a fix for the same. It is reported that players have lost approx or more than six months of their previous progress due to this glitch. Here is what to do if you are dealing with this problem.
Escape from Tarkov – How To Backup Profile?
Escape from Tarkov Profile is your save game progress. There is a manual way to back up the entire save game files. The issue with this is that you have to do this every day or at least after playing the game. So that all your progress, rewards, money, etc remain available for the next gameplay. This is a server-level bug with no fixed solution yet. Here are steps on to saving Escape from Tarkov progress manually.
- Go to the Users Folder in Escape from the Tarkov installation directory.
- Locate the profile folder, manually copy it, and paste it anywhere else.
- Or just right-click on the folder and select Add to Profile.rar. (you will need Winrar for this step).
In the future, if you find that your profile is not loading, just replace the folder or extract the zip file. The content will be restored. Launch the game to sync the same with the server.
Method 2: Fix from the Developer
Escape from Tarkov Developers has provided one solution to the players. This might not be feasible for all, but for those who are looking for a new start. Once your profile fails to load you have to report to the developers. In return, you will have a lot of cash, lab keycards, money cases, etc. You can use that to rebuild your loadout. Here is a list of things Escape from Tarkov Developers are giving compensation for the loss of user data.
- 100 Million Roubles + 50,000 USD & EUR
- 4 x Money Case
- Reserve Marked Keys
- All skills LL45
- All Labs keycards
- All Traders maxed
- DSPT
By default, the in-game compensation is sent to all the players who are facing this issue. But if you have not received the same, you can reach out the the developers via X.
It is a loss for many players, some are mourning their past few weeks’ data loss. The in-game compensation is not enough to restore the amount of time they have spent playing. Many players are not happy with the same, they prefer to get their profile back.
