Does anyone know how to transfer game saves to the external hdd via app2usb 5.05 PS4 PRO? I've managed to copy games and dlc's to my external hdd via app2usb but it doesn't copy over game saves which are still located on the internal hdd. Does anyone know how to transfer them over? I think we need to add another command line in the app2usb.ini file. Any help or ideas would be appreciated. Thanks.

Nothing to do with app2usb. Saves are stored on the PS4 HDD.
If you activate your profile you will then be able to 'backup' your saves to USB but it will only be a backup copy of your saves.
Any new save activity will still be accessed/updated from the saves on the PS4 HDD.

Thanks for the response and for the information. I tried posting this to reddit but the moderator made me post it in a general forum that got no traffic. What a joke. I guess I'll be posting my comments and questions in this forum from now on. Thanks again.

    I want drugs
  • Kirbydogs @ Kirbydogs:
    @Xdqwerty I wouldn't suggest taking them, they alter your health conditions and can actually kill you.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @Kirbydogs, I still want em
  • Kirbydogs @ Kirbydogs:
    It's good to keep in mind drugs are messing with your storage bank of your body, your movement, your consciousnesses, you could be more vulnerable to sicknesses...
  • Kirbydogs @ Kirbydogs:
    Because it's messing with your brain.
  • Kirbydogs @ Kirbydogs:
    The scariest part is, if you hurt somebody while on drugs, and can't remember ever doing it (because your mind wasn't recording it or something) that could be taken as a lie and you could go to jail.

    @Xdqwerty if you find a way to cure your depression, just be thankful you didn't take drugs.
