Default Call Of Duty 4 Save Files...HELP!

Hey gang,

I'm reformatting my hard drive tonight but there is only one stupid, little, annoying thing preventing me from going through with it right now.

I had installed COD4 and played it a long time saving all the time. I know the files have to be saved somewhere on this damn hard drive but I can't find it.

Apparently, upon uninstallation of the game, there is a question asking whether or not you want the save game files and configuration files deleted - when you press no, there should be some files left over which include both the save games and the configurations - The entire "Call Of Duty 4: Modern Warfare" folder is gone from the "Activision" folder within "Program Files".

So the question is - where the HELL are these save files?

Thanks in advance,
Jon

Look for a folder in your Documents. That's where some newer games are placing the save files.



Q6600@ 3.2GHz w/ CNPS9700 | EVGA 780i | 2Gb Corsair DDR2-800 | EVGA GTX 280 1Gb Video | 1x WD 640Gb HDD, 2x Seagate 400Gb HDD, 1x250Gb WD | 2x Samsung SH-203B Opticals | Antec 900 | ABS/Tagan BZ700 700W PSU

Hmm...that's what I saw around the web a few places as well, but prior to me uninstalling the game, a "players" folder didn't exist in the COD4 folder. In fact, none of the paths that I found through searching existed for me...

Thanks HL and Corsair!
