I read it somewhere that .sav files are only backup. the game uses .dat files. I found a lot of .sav files in my plugin folder. Should I keep them or remove them?

You can safely remove them from your Plugins folder. :thumbsup:

Those .sav files are most likely backup files that SC4Tool creates when modding a lot. In case something goes wrong, delete the broken lot and rename the .sav file to .SC4Lot again. You can disable this feature in the options if you think you don't need it. If you find such a file in a download, delete it right away, as it might contain outdated data.
