Hi gang - really proud of myself, and @KenDuckySmith you will be impressed. Just opened y game, and it was really slow (I think there were some windows updates going on in the background). Anyway, when it opened, it was back to just after the upgrade, all the last few days playing was lost and I had dropped down a level. Now, I have been following @KenDuckySmith instructions, and saving to a flash drive. I have been saving the two files that change everytime you close the game which are:- SaveProfile.bin and playerprefs.dat. I had last saved around 12 hours ago, after this mornings gifting, so copied those two files back, re-opened the game, and it worked - only lost 12 hours not 10 or so days. Not really sure what I was doing, jut following simple instructions, but they worked!

For those who don't do this, the instructions are:-

DAILY INSTRUCTIONS
1) Open file explorer, click on the view tab and just to the right of the header ensure the box, Hidden files or items is checked.
2) You can manually save the game each day if you feel comfortable with that, by going to: This PC. Click on C/users/username/AppData/Local/Packages/xxxxxxAirportCityxxxxx/LocalState
3) In this folder there is a SaveProfile.bin file. Copy and paste it, preferably on another drive, SDCard, Thumb drive, but not on the same drive you are using for OS. Note that again unless the hidden items box is not checked under the view tab, a user cannot see the AppData folder. (I also do this with playerpref.dat)
4) If you save a shortcut on your desktop, it is so easy.
RECOVERY INSTRUCTIONS
1) If your game should happen to crash and revert back to level 1, all you need to do is get the game to level 5 first, close the game and the LocalState folder is created along with the first SaveProfile.bin file.
2) Go to where you saved your own bin file earlier, copy it and paste it into the LocalState folder, replacing the one already there.
3) Open the game once again and you should be right where you left off.

@ItsRalphy I do the entire LocalState folder now. and back it up. just right click on the folder itself, copy and paste onto drive every day. If the game crashes it puts you back that 12 hours instead of it being longer. The more one waits to get a reply from GI, the more info can be overwritten on the servers.
Ever try to recover files you deleted two days ago?
Once they go to recycle and you empty the bin, if the drive needs that space to write something else, then the previous file is now corrupt or incomplete.
So its best to keep thumb drive nearby or inserted into USB port if you are playing off and on such as doing QL's.

Oh and BTW @ItsRalphy I guess we got a ranking in alliance for somewhere this week. lol it went by so quick in !KB2 I forgot what it was. here is pic

Dear friends: Please update me with what you need. You can see my list for what I need. If you don't let me know, I will send the best guess item and won't send event items unless I know you need them and are participating in it. I'm not on the forums a lot although I do check my alerts if you tag me and I do send gifts every day. Items I need are in red and I am NOT participating in the event so please do not send event items :)

Good Morning Neighbors,

All my gifts have been sent out. I hope they come in handy. Thank you for all of your help finishing up my CT upgrade and Event activities. My L4 Hanger is done and filled with a Jet which is now flying to far reaches of the globe! I wound up with another sleigh so am building another hanger for that with all of the Christmas goodies from Cyprus. Please send me Old Lanterns or any of the Building Needs listed in my signature if you have them available. Thank you...

Dear Fellow Flyers

I've just finished gifting my 20 gift items for today, Tuesday 7.35am London UK time. I've also opened up a red launch for those able to keep their food down. My thanks once again for all the old lanterns, paints, oils and covers received yesterday and today thus far.

Seasons's Greetings

Hi all, been a little while, but the holiday season is a very busy period. Hope everything will be a bit better after New Year.

Haven't done nothing, got up a few levels and gathered some stars, but the best thing is that I'm finally able to visit my neighbours again! (Yes, it's been that long since I got here for the last time).

Good morning. Thanks for all the gifts. Hopefully everyone is receiving mine. My game is working ok, a few minor glitches. But I am happy to report I am able to play on the world map now. It was nice to receive those little bonuses on Sunday.

I have an ice rink if anyone wants to visit it. I should have 2 by tomorrow. hopefully....

Morning all, just updated my signature as had to add a few things from leveling up and with the update throwing in stuff like a Safety Cone. I have 6 sleighs flying out every hour and still need a freezer and artificial ice. So fuel would be appreciated so I can keep Santa and my big birds flying.

Hello everyone, I usually don't post on the trading forums much. I have announced my second game of AC I play as a support account Gamername Okie. I have plenty of trading spaces available in my second game. Although I haven't set up the game for launches yet, but will in the future. Fill free to send me request to both of my games of AC I play, but for fast turn around on daily trading my Okie game is the best since my Turion game I run sometimes about 3 days on my trade list. Please send me a private massage since I respond to those quicker if you are interested in trading.
