Due to some power problems and strange issues with Windows, I had to restart my computer while playing a game. When I came back to the game, I found out that my saved progress was messed up. After losing an exciting match, I got really angry. That’s when I decided to make a fast script to fix and enhance certain aspects of the original script.
Powershell Script
When your save file gets messed up and there’s no way to get it back, it makes sense to keep a backup of the file. It’s likely that the game was trying to update the save file right when the computer suddenly turned off. The chances of this happening are not super high, but they’re not zero either. By having a backup, you can switch between different saved states, kind of like having different points in the game that you can go back to.

Changing the execution policy in PowerShell affects the entire session or system and not just a particular folder. However, there’s a trick to run a script in a specific folder without altering the overall execution policy. You can achieve this by launching PowerShell with the -ExecutionPolicy Bypass parameter for that specific script or session.
To do this, you can use the PowerShell terminal and type: .\The_Shrouded_Isle_Backup_save.ps1. Alternatively, you can right-click on the script and choose to execute it with PowerShell. This allows you to run the script without changing the system-wide execution policy, making it a handy workaround.
