I installed Olympus yesterday to play with some mods. Today I tried loading vanilla through Olympus by clicking 'Celeste' insread of 'Everest'. Doing this launched the game in vanilla but all my progress from before I installed the loader is gone? There are no save files.

How can I get my saves back into vanilla?

How to play vanilla after installing mod loader?

if you, during the installation process after a dialog box popped up asking for administration permission, happened to click "No" in there (or just could not/didnt want to give it permission) then your saves will be separate from everest and vanilla celeste

#

so, the easiest fix is to reinstall everest and click yes on there, or you could copy the files manually, though again, progress will not be synced

nope, reinstalling everest does not erase saves

#

Alright, I'll try it rn.

#

@wild tulip Just uninstall and install again? Or is there an actual reinstall option?

To update Everest go to Olympus and click the cog on the top line, next to the Everest and Celeste buttons.
Select the version you want to install, typically this should be the latest stable, then press install.

If Everest or Lönn are currently open, close them since they open files in a way that prevents them updating.

If your Olympus does not look like this use the /updateolympus command

updating will efectively be the same as reinstalling

#

also before you do

#

you may want to do something

#

verifying game files and then installing everest will show the popup

wild tulip
#

go to your celeste installation and go to orig and delete the Saves folder there

wild tulip
#

either will do

fiery isle
#

So delete the orig/Saves and update Olympus?

wild tulip
#

yes

fiery isle
#

Alright

wild tulip
#

(for safety, make sure there is nothing importnat in saves)

fiery isle
#

settings.celeste in there

wild tulip
#

but it shouldnt since you told your saves where not there

wild tulip

fiery isle
