Basically the Titel. I made the transition from Windows to Linux but so far i havent managed to get my old savegames to load in Linux.

I am using Linux Mint and Windows 10, right now the system is a dualboot so i thought that it would be a Copy and Paste Thing to get my gamefile. I only tried it with the binding of Isaac repentance so far, and i am afraid that i will lose all my savegames from all my games.

Update for those who come from the Future:

the files didnt load because the Last dlc (repentance) has no linux Support but i played it on Windows so the gamefiles were from repentance
the solition was to use/force a compability layer instead of the Linux Version of the game

try out older versions of Proton if you encounter bugs (a good way for me was to look into the challenges menu to See if the repentance challenges show up)

Are you sure you're putting your saves in the right folder? I've moved my saves back and forth on many games and they work fine. Binding of Isaac has cloud saves on Steam.

When i installed Isaac on linux i didnt get any of my old gamefiles, do i somehow need to activate the Streamcloud? Also is there a another savegames folder on linux?
