      Better, it could be literally anywhere and there’s nothing you can do about it. Also symlinks practically look like regular folders and files to most apps.

      That’s why i prefer to use Wine for games. Just change the symlinks in C:/users/<you> to somewhere sane, like .local/Games/<game>/save. Guess you could also use the variables in .config/user-dirs.dirs while creating the prefix, but i haven’t tested that yet.

        There’s no game related dirs in your My Documents dir? Most don’t even use My Games they just dump directly into My Documents. I guarantee most game devs don’t understand the difference between local and roaming either. They just put shit randomly wherever they want
