Hate to be thick but where are these saved files located

Are they the 2 files named 00000000 and 00000001

Strange, I was thinking about this myself some few minutes ago.
I would like to delete my old savings too.

Still not sure how to delete them....

\Documents\SH5\data\Users contains your saved captains
\Documents\SH5\data\cfg\SaveGames are your saved games
\Documents\SH5\data\cfg\RichSaveGames are some encoded format of your saved games

How come the game doesn't have a delete icon in the saved games menu to make this easier

Deleting the games from folders doesn't work for me. I have to load a saved game, go into the load saved game menu and then select each saved game and delete it using the option in the lower right corner. It's very boring to do so when you have dozens of saved games, but it's the only way that worked for me.

I'm sick to death with un-installin' and re-installin' this P.O.S. cause you can't delete saved games easily
