Match the prompt to the documented fix

Version 1.14.0 documents a recovery for some corrupted Whispers in the Woods saves. It describes the consequences: progress rollback to before Initiation, chart reset to that point, and audio tapes returned to the world. Do not assume a missing item, unrelated quest, base-game save, or a different prompt is covered.

  1. Record platform, installed version, base game/DLC, quest name, and exact prompt before choosing a response.
  2. If the prompt explicitly identifies the affected Whispers in the Woods recovery, read the rollback/tape consequences and decide whether to continue from that checkpoint.
  3. If no prompt appears, do not manually roll back or delete files based on this article; check newer official notes and preserve the original save using the platform's supported backup options.
  4. After the supported recovery, inspect the chart objective and returned tape locations described by the prompt. Do not claim success until the game's own progress UI confirms it.
  5. For other symptoms, use the developer's current support route with the exact version and whether the issue is DLC-specific.
  6. Avoid uploading save files or account identifiers to an unverified community thread.

Collected audio tapes missingNotes say tapes are returned to the world with updated markersThat all inventory losses are restored

Prepare a focused support report

Separate the prompt and result from your theory about why the save changed. This worksheet assembles text locally and sends nothing.

  1. Enter platform/version and the exact quest or DLC state.
  2. Paste the recovery prompt wording without account/private details.
  3. State whether the chart rollback and tape markers appeared after proceeding.
  4. Compare the report with the current official patch archive before asking the community.

Before you play

  • I confirmed this is Whispers in the Woods and noted the version.
  • I read the rollback and tape-return consequences before proceeding.
  • I did not delete or edit a save based on unrelated community advice.
  • I verified progress in the game's own UI after the prompt.

Frequently asked questions

Will 1.14.0 recover any Pacific Drive save?

No. The notes describe a fix for some broken Whispers in the Woods progression saves and a specific rollback behavior.

Can this tool restore my save?

No. It stores entered notes in the page only and cannot access local or console save files.
