3. Recover Lost Progress (Local Storage)

If your save disappeared, it might still be stored in your browser.

Try These Fixes:

  • Check another browser: If you switched browsers, your save might still be in the old one.
  • Check Incognito Mode: Saves don’t work in incognito/private mode.
  • Try using a backup save (if you exported it earlier).
  • Enable Cookies & Local Storage in your browser settings.

4. Restore a Save from Steam (If Playing on Steam)

If you played Cookie Clicker on Steam, your progress is linked to Steam Cloud.

Steps:

  1. Open Steam.
  2. Launch Cookie Clicker.
  3. Your save should automatically load from the Steam Cloud.

5. Start Fresh with Cheats (Optional)

If your save is gone, you can speed up progress with cheats.

Steps:

  • Open Cookie Clicker.
  • Press F12 (Ctrl + Shift + I for Chrome) to open the console.
  • Enter this code to get cookies instantly:
Game.cookies = 1000000000;
  • If you want to enable Dev Mode, type:
Game.OpenSesame();
  • Press Enter to activate.

    6. Backup Your Save to Prevent Future Loss

    To avoid losing progress again:

    1. Go to Options.
    2. Click “Export Save” and copy the text.
    3. Save it in a text file or cloud storage (e.g., Google Drive).
