Recovering Lost CharactersThis handy guide was originally written by!Computer crash, power outage, or otherwise unexpected shutdown of your computer in the middle of playing Starbound? Character not showing up in your player menu after such an event? In cases like this, you might have aCorrupt character!Oh no!
That’s unfortunate! What do I do? Is there any way to restore it?Fear not, important individual! There are indeed steps you can take to restore your beautiful character, and their ship, from an automatic backup! Just follow these steps carefully, and you’ll be chasing Poptops and catching Fawnflies in no-time!Step 1: Find your player folder.

Your “player” folder should be there.Step 2: Back up your player folder.This will create a backup of all files inside your player folder, just in case something goes wrong in step 3. Copy the folder. Paste the folder elsewhere (For example: On your desktop.)Step 3: Restore from a backup:This assumes your corrupt character was the most recent one you’ve accessed. If that is not the case, and you’ve used one or two characters after that, then the files you want will be one or two jumbles further down.Sort by date accessed, and the most recent one should be the first one. These files will be jumbles of letters and numbers. (Which I will refer to as jumble from here on.)For example:ab08803dbcb4173747d4d93bbeef65df.playerab08803dbcb4173747d4d93bbeef65df.shipworldab08803dbcb4173747d4d93bbeef65df.player.bak1ab08803dbcb4173747d4d93bbeef65df.shipworld.bak1. Rename jumble.player.bak1 and jumble.shipworld.bak1 to jumble.player and jumble.shipworld.
Delete jumble.player and jumble.shipworldNote: Do not actually change the jumble of letters and numbers, to jumble. Leave them alone, and only change the stuff after the dot.“This didn’t work! My character still doesn’t show up!”. Repeat the second-last part of step 3, and then the last part with jumble.player.bak2 and jumble.shipworld.bak2.

If that still doesn’t work, try with jumble.player.bak3 and jumble.shipworld.bak3.
