Notes
- Always return to the title screen first before you restore a backup!
- Quick backup will always overwrite the "Quickbackup.sl2" file in the backup folder, to create seperate backups use a custom hotkey for manual backup instead.
- This tool can only backup the last auto save in game and not creating individual save states, but it's kinda possible, when you quit the game, then after reloading it creates a new autosave, from which you could manual backup, it's like having a custom "save state".
