Retrieve game saves with Y2JB backup

awin59 · 2026-07-07T09:03:34+0100

I'm on PS5 Slim with an unpaired drive (had to reinstall the OS after messing up with BD-JB).
Is there a way to restore or extract and merge my game saves data to the Y2JB backup without rebooting?
Or the other way around : transfer the Youtube app to my personal backup?

Your question is a bit ambiguous here. So a few more details about the state of your console and what you intend to do would be helpful. You can't re-pair the drive without connecting to PSN with the latest firmware, for example.

Anyhow, if your PS5 is already jailbroken, then the easy and direct answer is to use Garlic Save Manager to backup the saves. After that, you can restore them later when the console is jailbroken again.

As to your second question: yes, a full PS5 system backup would include the YouTube app. It is a legitimate, signed application, after all. So you would be able to restore the backup and use YouTube.
