Neither Azimuth nor FH2MP keeps your save in the cloud. Azimuth only keeps the two newest revisions, and a bad crash can damage both. A backup takes a minute.
Manual backup
1. Close the game.
2. Copy data\titles from your Azimuth folder to another place: your Documents, another drive or a cloud folder.
3. Name the copy with the date, for example titles-2026-11-07.
Do this before every Azimuth update, before installing mods, and before using a save editor or car tool.
Restoring a backup
1. Close the game, Azimuth and the launcher.
2. Rename the current data\titles to titles-broken (don't delete it yet).
3. Copy your backup in as data\titles.
4. Start the game and check your progress.
Automatic backups
•The launcher's Save manager makes a backup every time it copies a save. Open backups shows them.
•The AutoBackupSaveGame mod backs up your progress when the game starts and every 15 minutes, and keeps the newest 10 backups. It skips damaged revisions. It backs up the User_9000000000000 profile, not liveries, tunes or photos, so keep making manual copies of data\titles too.
Before a big change
Starting over in a new Azimuth folder? Copy data\titles from the old folder into the new one. See [Keep Azimuth, the game and mods in separate folders](/tutorials/keep-folders-separate).
