Hello, I need help with the following, I did a cleanup on my pc so I reinstalled the game from steam but now it does not detect my progress, it starts as a completely new game.
check lodestone and I can still see my character.
trying to buy from the store still lets me select my character, but when I start the game it starts as if I had never played before.
the game does not detect my account/progress

have you checked your game is connected on the right DC by default. It's possible that by default, you chose another DC, so the game doesn't detect you characters. To change DC, you go in the top right corner the character selection screen, choose "world list", and change your dc.

Ty so much, but i think i solve this, looks like windows duplicate my documents folder, and the game take the new one so didn't read the correct one and make new files, rn reinstaling game and hope all works now
