Autosave Backup Tool
🛡️ Function introduction
This is a small and practical batch file tool, specially designed to solve the automatic save overwriting problem of "Red Dead Redemption 2"!
When you die, your horse dies, or some other unexpected event occurs, the game immediately creates a new autosave file and overwrites the previous one. In this case, you can only roll back to the last manual save point, and if it has been a long time since the last manual save, you will lose a lot of game progress.
⚡ How it works
This tool automatically creates a copy of the autosave file every minute, always maintaining two backups:
- Backup from 1 minute ago
- Backup from 2 minutes ago
🎮 Advantages of use
- ✨ No longer afraid of losing progress due to accidental death
- 🐎 Easily roll back even if the horse dies
- ⏰ The game state can be restored up to 2 minutes ago
- 🔄 Runs automatically without manual intervention
📖 Detailed Guide
For complete instructions and illustrated tutorials, please refer to the author's Steam guide (section "Bonus: Rolling back to a previous autosave").
The compressed package also contains two Readme files (English and Russian), which provide all operating instructions.

💡 **Tip**: It is recommended to ensure that the tool is running properly before starting important tasks, so that even if something unexpected happens, you can easily recover your progress!
Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.
Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
