It keeps one backup save in there automatically.
I still recommend doing manual backups myself (I know that advice comes a bit too late for your friend, but they should definitely keep that in mind for the future)... I lost a lot of progress on a game crash a couple months ago, and now have regular backup points stored in addition to the automatic one.

Ok, fair enough, but how do you re activate the backup save file
(Also how's saffron doing?)

@ SmokedMemes Um... I think you just copy the save file and paste it into the "main" save folder... I think that's C:\Users\<Username>\Saved Games\Pokemon Uranium (I'm not on my computer that has PU on it, so I can't check... I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong). You might want to consider copying the "corrupted" file elsewhere before you replace it, just in the off chance that it's somehow recoverable. Then launch the game and see what happens.
Also, I haven't had a chance to play much recently, so I haven't had the opportunity to get Saffron out and play with him much. At the moment, when I've been able to play I've been doing some breeding and leveling up my team in preparation of the Zeta quest. But once I clear that, I'll definitely be leveling him up!
And on those lines, how's Proton?

Hmmm... at this point just so that i don't corrupt my friend's computer i'm just gonna train her pokemon from scratch and be done with it.
And Proton is doing SPLENDID, already a Nucleon, and a huge help to my team. They werent kidding when they said he was overpowered XD.

You won't corrupt your friends compute. this is 100% harmless, I promise!  Go into the backup folder, right click the file inside and select "Copy" and go back to your Saved games folder (Click on My Computer > Click "OS C:\ then click the User Folder, Click on The Username you use when you log in to your PC, Then Click on saved games, then once more on the Pokemon Uranium Folder. Right click and select "Paste". Your computer will ask you if you want to overwrite the old file, select yes

Sweet! I just evolved one of my Eevees to a Nucleon a few days ago... didn't take long to get him fully EV-trained and up to the same level as my team (Pokerus and the training Ninjas helped a lot). And yeah, he's definitely OP! I was taking out the Special Attack ninja's Level 53 Krilvolvers at Level 30 just using Swift.
Sad that my new favorite Eeveelution isn't even considered "real" outside the Uranium circle.
