my savefile is corrupt but nothing helps :0

[Liamun]

Hello my fellow Witchers : ),

I have a 69h savefile that I played on in April before my finals, without any problems whatsoever. Today I wanted to launch it again and bought + installed all DLCs and thought nothing of it. When I tried launching my saves i got the pop-up message "your savefile is corrupt and cannot be launched". I have tried a few things to save my playthrough so far (uninstalling DLCs, repairing corrupted files, turning Cloud off, ...), but nothing helped and I don't really know whether the DLC's caused the problem or maybe the new patch, that was launched during my finals, so during the time when i didn't play the game. I play the game on Steam and have my savefiles saved in the cloud, I really hope that I can get back my savefile somehow, so I would happily accept help from any Witchers or tech magicians out there

Thank you for your help in advance <3

Have you used any mods in the past?

No I haven't, it is my first playthrough of the game and I didnt use any mods or anything other than the normal settings of the game :0

It‘s hard to say what the issue is. Long ago I had one or more corrupted auto save which resulted in an error message for other previously fully functional save games as well. In my case deleting the corrupted saves (I made a backup of all save games first just in case) helped. Afterwards the other save games were accessible again. However, that is just one possibility…

If a save games really is corrupted there’s not much you can do though,
