Portable Saves (working title = YAST - Yet Another Save Tool)
This add-on lets you back up saves for portable games where the game places its saves inside the game directory.
The first public release includes several game engines with more to be added soon.
Special Thanks to everyone who contributed to this project.
Features:
Requirements:
Tips:
Tag your games with game engine. You can use PCGW plugin to do this or you can add the tags manually. Having the tags will let you filter games by game engine which will make it easier to bulk scan selected games for the selected engine.
KNOWN ISSUES:
Run the report to check the exclusions for all of your save profiles.
Donations?
I'm not taking donations. If you want to donate, please donate to GameSave Manager instead at http://www.gamesave-manager.com/?s=donate
Compatibility: Due to the Great 8 Break, this add-on is not compatible with any version of Playnite after v8.15.
If you found this add-on useful, you can find more of my add-ons here
After these forums close I will upload add-ons to Internet Archive and MEGA (save these links now in case the forum threads get deleted)

Special Thanks to everyone who contributed to this project.
Features:
- Your choice of where to store the save backups
- Scan multiple games at once (selected games must be all the same game engine)
- Backup multiple games at once
- Restore backup
- Automatic timestamp of the most recent save file
- Automatic skipping for backup operation where the saves have not changed since the previous backup made (using the timestamp)
- Moving game locations will not break backing up/restoring as this will always use the current install path
- Renaming games will not break backing up/restoring
Requirements:
- Playnite (v8.15 recommended)
- 7-Zip (at least v20) (download installer from https://www.7-zip.org/) (UPDATE: portable 7z support added in v1.1.0)
Tips:

KNOWN ISSUES:
- report assumes CSV file type has a program association
- scan templates using USER_SELECT (any scan template for UNSUPPORTED - Language) can ignore file exclusions in certain scenarios
Run the report to check the exclusions for all of your save profiles.
