Managing save files for Escape The Backrooms on Windows can be frustrating — save files are scattered across game directories, indistinguishable by name alone, and prone to accidental overwrites. ETB Save Manager solves this by providing a clean, powerful desktop tool that lets you:
- Browse and manage all your Escape The Backrooms save files in one place
- Edit player data — inventory items, sanity, and other UE4 save fields
- Create new saves from scratch or from templates, with full control over game state
- Organize saves with custom names, filtering, and batch operations
- Recover deleted saves with soft-delete and a built-in recycle bin
Whether you are a casual player wanting to keep your progress safe or a power user experimenting with different game states, ETB Save Manager gives you complete control over your Escape The Backrooms save data.

Q: Is this an official Fancy Games tool?
A: No. ETB Save Manager is an independent, community-built open-source project. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to Fancy Games or the developers of Escape The Backrooms.
Q: Will editing save files corrupt my game?
A: The editor validates data where possible, but modifying save files always carries some risk. Always back up your original save files before editing. The app's recycle bin feature provides a safety net — deleted originals can be restored.
Q: Does this support the latest Escape The Backrooms update?
A: Yes. When new maps or game updates change the save data format, the tool is updated accordingly. Check the releases page for the latest update.
Q: How do I report a bug or request a feature?
A: Open an issue on the GitHub issue tracker. Feature requests and bug reports are both welcome.
