Hi,
to start off I go between multiple computers and am trying to play grim dawn on both of them, when I downloaded grim down and on the second computer and booted it up it only had 1 character and that’s the one I don’t wanna play on. I’ve tried everything and I am longing for a answer, do I need to go to my other computer and manual copy files off that and bring to my other pc? Please if you could help me that would be great
Welcome to the forum. 
That depends on whether you have cloud saving turned on or off for the game. If it’s on then it should be synced and the characters should be available, but cloud saving is known to screw up at times.
If you have local saves then yes, you need to backup the files and move them.
Moving files from my other computer? I’ve gone through my computer and can’t find any of my save files, I have one character from my other computer but its not the right one
If you have cloud saves enabled (enabled by default) your save file will be in \Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata########\219990\remote\save
Otherwise it will be in \My Documents\My Games\Grim Dawn\save
In that file it has the character I dont wanna play on, do you just wanna message me or something and try and walk me through it?
Which one? Do you have cloud saving enabled or not? Check both the Steam settings and the ingame Options Menu.
Both of them have cloud save on them and for some reason I only have one character, is it per character?
No, they all get saved there.
I will check on my other computer when im over there tomorrow, do you have discord so I could better explain my situation?
There’s the offical one
But I’m not sure how being on that makes explanations easier, but sign up by all means if you want to talk to me and others about it.
ive joined it and @ you
Try opening up Explorer and navigate to the root of the C drive and typing your character’s name in the Search box.
It does not exist, should I manually take the files from my other computer via thumb drive and install them with the other saves?
Sure. Make sure you place them in the local saving location in the Documents/MyGames location. Then you need to make sure you disable cloudsaving in TWO locations. There is an in-game setting that needs to be disabled and there is a Steam setting for cloudsaving that needs to be disabled - right-click on GD and select Properties to find it.
If you don’t disable cloudsaving then the characters you place there will not show up in-game until you do.
powbam’s added some screenshots towards the end of the thread which may help you understand how to do it too.
will i have to do this only once? or everytime i switch computers?
If you use local saving… yes - you would need to manually move them. If you use cloudsaving you technically shouldn’t have to. My guide at the link Medea posted just above is at post number 208 and it shows you how to properly transfer characters from cloud-saving to local and then it has a section for how to put them back into the cloud.
so i can manually move only once, take the files i manually moved and make them into cloud files?
Yes, if you follow the steps I detail you shouldn’t have any problems. I’ve done it a few times testing it out to write that guide and had no problems moving them back and forth.
The guide that medea posted?
