I can't say thank you enough, the game wouldn't let me log in or use my backup save so I had to follow your video and it worked like a charm. although I restarted my PC offline after deleting the saves.
Gents, I tried this and it worked, but please - you simply need to go into your steam window and select Go Offline, you do not need to disconnect yourself from the internet. Especially if you are watching a livestream or are in a discord call or something and would rather not deal with that.
It's a bummer that we can't reset progress in game or have multiple profiles. 1st time I started the game I had an office call on the side, lots of msi afterburner stats on screen and I just messed about trying to get into the volcano. I just want to start over enjoying the game properly.
Thank you. I needed that, because, I wanted to stream FH5 for a HNY special tomorrow evening. I tested it, if it's good on my PC and played it for approximately 1 and a half hour And for the stream, I wanted to restart the game and not starting somewhere in the game
Thank god I found your video man. It shouldn't be this difficult! I did encounter a message forcing to load the backup once but on a second try, it worked. Thanks man.
You sir are doing the work of God's over here. I appreciate every minute of that 8+ hrs. Thank you a million times!!! This is the answer I have been looking for
FYI, in case this isn't working you. As of today, this worked but I had to add one step. After deleting the save files from your Steam userdata folder, I had to power cycle computer BEFORE disconnecting internet and running game offline. Otherwise, following the steps worked.
Yo its insane to me that you can't restart without Manually deleting the damn save, my brother started a game on my account and I can't just restart, that is wild
i have one problem now i reset my pc and when i installed forza back with same account i lost all data but in steam shows i have 37% badges completed and 147hours and when i join,im on new account with lvl 1 how to fix that pls
Is it possible to transfer my progress from xbox to steam? I logged into my xbox acc where i have all the card etc, but when i log into fh5 on steam with my xbox acc i start from scratch😭
find and safe the wsp-folder. Now delete this folder an start the game without Internet conenction. After the tutorial/Prolog, you connect the PC again. The game ask you if you wanna use the pc local folder-save or the cloud. You mark the local folder. Thats it.
Thank you very much! Best video i found, it worked perfectly, i just haved a problem with my save file and you make possible for me to continue to play. Liked and sub for sure!
Btw i did it, with internet turned off i deleted forza data through settings > apps > forza. Ran the game without wifi connection passed few missions and when i turned internet on it asked me which save would i prefer to play i chose latest save
hey i have a request. i had restarted my laptop because my games were running slow . when i go in FH5 ,by mistake i put in the wrong account when signing in and idk how to go log out from the xbox account that i used when i restarted forza to the account that i want to use for the game. is there anyway i can do that without restarting my laptop
can you do a video with a cracked verison of forza horizon 5 (fitgirl repack)? I added the non-game to Steam and it launches but I cant figure out where the saves are.
I reinstalled the game and when i opened the game again it didnot show me the long in to Microsoft account page it just logged into some random account and when i press sign out it doesn't do anything
I need to do this, but on Microsoft Store version, because the game crash so many times and I think it's because the save data is in conflict. Can you do a video but with the Microsoft Store version?
Okay, I just found out. Turn off your internet and go to Settings > Apps > Forza Horizon 5 > Advanced Settings > Reset. After that, restart the computer and still with the internet off, launch the game. This worked for me.
@@josemanoel7252 opa, descobri aqui. Desliga a conexão com a internet, vai em configurações > aplicativos > Forza Horizon 5 > opções avançadas > restaurar. Reinicia o PC e ainda com a internet desligada, abre o jogo. Funcionou aqui pra mim
@@josemanoel7252 Pior que isso eu creio que não seja possível. A não ser que ele tenha o jogo na conta microsoft dele e logue na conta no seu computador. Mas creio que mesmo assim não tenha como separar os profiles no mesmo computador.

I have a question, is it possible that if I UNINSTALL the game, the save progress will be gone? Because I have to start from scratch when I did that.. even though I had the achievements and everything on Steam.

Still works! Best method i;ve found. Took hours to find a way and just did it this way. No problems and i've been playing for hours. Online works

I have a question, is it possible that if I UNINSTALL the game, the save progress will be gone? Because I have to start from scratch when I did that.. even though I had the achievements and everything on Steam.
If you removed the cloud data (or if they deleted it), then all your data would be gone once you delete the save folder while uninstalling.
