Deleting saved games.

[stormbringer3]

Is there any way to delete more than 1 at a time?
Thanks.

Find where they are stored. It may depend on your installation, but mine are in the Documents folder of my root drive (c:) in the folder Documents/My Games/Panzer Corps/Save. Find them and you can delete all you want at once. Your saved Cores and replays are also in other folders there. While I haven't played it much, I also have Panzer Corps II through Steam (my Panzer Corps is not in Steam) and there is a folder for those saves too (Documents/My Games/Panzer Corps 2/Saves) although it is 'Saves' instead of 'Save'. Don't know why.

Thanks for the reply. I found the saves but it looks like I still have to delete them one at a time or pick delete all which I don't want to do.

1. In Windows Explorer (as turn4441 says above), ensure you are viewing the saved games files as a list (View menu > list or View menu > details).
2. If you wish to delete a block of files, click on the first file you wish to delete, hold the shift button down, then click on the last file you wish to delete. This will highlight all the files you have selected. Press delete, or use your right mouse button to select delete, and all the highlighted files will be deleted.
3. If you wish to select non-sequential files to delete, hold the Control (Ctrl) button down (and keep it held down) as you select each file and it will be highlighted. Press delete, or use your right mouse button to select delete when you've selected all the files you wish to delete, and all the highlighted files will be deleted.

Hope this helps!

Thanks for the help, that worked perfectly! I learned something new today.

Rubyjuno, thanks for the assist.

In addition to what Rubyjuno said above, if the files you want to delete are all in order, you can simply left-click to either the right or left of the first file and hold the left button down and drag a box to the last file. Then right-click inside the box and select delete. If you have several separated groups of files you want to delete, you can also do this but use the Control button as mentioned above, then delete all the groups when finished selecting.

As a bump to this, Steam might cache and re-sync to restore the "missing" save game files. MS Onedrive might also kick in to do this. I have found that if you open a Steam game, go to the "Load Game" dialog, then switch out to Explorer and bulk delete those files you can bypass this feature for those files and have them removed from the Steam Cloud also.

I've started anew many times for several Steam games that sync to Steam Cloud and this works perfectly. Key is to get the game active, which is past the re-sync phase, and delete from there. When you exit the game the state is saved and those files are gone.
