Game Backup Monitor

Game Backup Monitor is a free and open source program that allows you to create automatic backup copies of all your video game saves. All backups are compressed using 7-zip and stored in the cloud. This way, if your game is damaged or if something happens to your PC, you won't lose any of your progress.

Fully automated backups

When you start using Game Backup Monitor, the program will take care of backing up your saved game every time you exit a video game. You won't have to do a thing. The program, which will always be running in the background, will detect when you close a video game and automatically create a backup copy and upload it to the cloud. As a result, any game, no matter how old it is, can be stored in the cloud.

Compatible with emulators and interpreters

What makes Game Backup Monitor so interesting is that it is fully compatible with both emulators and interpreters like ScummVM and DOSBox. But what does this mean? Well, it means that even if you are not playing a native Windows title, you can save backup copies of any game save. Whether it's a PlayStation 2 title or a classic 80s PC game that requires DOSBox, you can easily create backup copies of those game saves.

A host of preconfigured games

On the official Game Backup Monitor website you will find a huge compatibility list with more than 500 preconfigured titles. In a nutshell, this means that the program can recognize those video games and automatically know where to go to in order to back up the saved game. This compatibility list includes mainly GOG games, but also Steam games and games that are not available on any digital distribution platform.

Protect your game saves

Download Game Backup Monitor if you regularly play video games on your PC but don't use a cloud-based platform like Steam. One of the great advantages of using this software over Steam or Epic Games is that you can enjoy all the benefits of cloud-based game save backups, without the disadvantages of having to use a DRM client.
