This was the closest I could get to this. However, the person who knew how to prevent disavowement only sent a PM to the OP and didn't actually post how

So, does anyone feel like sharing?

So this once I'm just irritated enough to try and reinstate my savegame, but the only tool I can find dates from 2007-ish and requires (coff coff) .Net 1.1.4322.

It depends on where you install spel it, but here is my batch file for backing up the game:Code: Select all

These are the default save locations on Windows 10 from a CD install of Uplink v1.31 + v1.55 patch.
Change PC to your user name in the C:\Users folder
If you install to a non-default location, the saves probably don't go to the hidden AppData folder but likely are in the same non-default folder.
