Trying to transfer saved game ownership to new profile

[jisaacks]

I am trying to transfer a saved game to a new profile because the profile it is under, I am locked out of.

I was able to open it up, and find the PorfileID, I also found the ProfileID of the user I want to transfer ownership to by the same means. I set the ProfileID to the new user and rehashed/resigned. It said it was successful. (I am running as root)

I can confirm that closing the app and reopening, it still has the new ProfileID I set, so everything looks good.

I plug the USB back into my Xbox360 and when I go to storage and access that file, it still says it belongs to the original user, (which I am expecting it to belong to the new user)

So am I missing a step to transfer the saved game to a new user?

Did you place the save under the same profile ID it was at previously (the locked at account)? That would be cause for issue.

@landr0id Thanks, I am not sure exactly what you mean by place the save under the same profile ID all I did was open the file via Package Viewer (I navigated to it using raw device viewer), it had a field for ProfileID. I changed that value, then rehashed/resigned.

So there something else you mean?

I figured it out, I did not notice that the file path to the game save, one of the directories was named the same as the ProfileID. I renamed the directory to the same name as the new profile and that fixed it.
