Re-Enable Achievements after SAM Reset
By Samuel Stone
This guide is designed for players who want to reset their progress in Dying Light, including achievements, to enjoy the game as if playing it for the first time. It walks you through deleting your save files, disabling Steam Cloud Sync, and ensuring a clean slate for achievements and game progression. While SAM (Steam Achievement Manager) is mentioned as a tool to reset achievements, this guide emphasizes that it is for players wishing to revisit the game from the beginning without old progress interfering. Follow these steps carefully to reset your save and achievements.

1) Locate and Delete the Save Folder
- Navigate to the directory: steam/userdata/(yoursteamid)/239140.
- Delete the folder named 239140.
2) Disable Steam Cloud Sync
- Open Steam
- Go to your library and right-click on Dying Light.
- Select Properties → General → Disable Steam Cloud for the game.
3) Start Fresh in the Game
- Launch the game
- Create a new save and play until you kill the first infected.

The achievement for this should unlock (assuming you've reset achievements using SAM beforehand).
4) Re-enable Steam Cloud Sync
- Exit the game.
- Go back to Steam and re-enable Steam Cloud for Dying Light.
5) Handle the Cloud Save Conflict
- Steam will detect a conflict between local and cloud saves (don't worry it means you're doing it right until here).

- Choose to overwrite the cloud save with the new local save.
6) Done
You will now have a clean save file without your old cloud saves. Achievements will unlock as you progress through the game, just as if you were playing it for the first time.

Have fun hunting for trophies! 🏆
