Navigate to the %localappdata%\capcom\resident evil 4\ folder. Rename your current savedata.dat to savedata_backup.dat. Do not delete it until you confirm the new one works.
The original 2007 PC port of Resident Evil 4, developed by Ubisoft (and later by SourceNext in Japan), was infamous for a specific technical flaw colloquially known as the "PC Exclusive" save issue. Unlike the console versions (GameCube, PS2) which used password-based save systems or standard memory card slots, this PC port introduced an unstable, DRM-linked save mechanism that was prone to corruption, pathing errors, and region incompatibility. This report details the nature, causes, and solutions for this problem.
Download the new savedata.dat file. Copy it directly into the folder. If the downloaded file is in a .zip or .rar, extract it first.
The original 2007 Ubisoft port was infamous for missing features. However, the fan-made RE4 HD Project (by Albert Marin and Cris Morales) created a definitive PC experience. Exclusive saves for this mod include corrected lighting values and item placements that crash on vanilla consoles.
