Quick Method (Windows Search)

Press **Win + R**, type `%appdata%\Ryujinx`
In the Ryujinx folder, use Windows Search (Ctrl+F) to search for `savedataArc.txt`
The first result is your save file

Lime3DS (3DS Original Game)

%appdata%\Lime3DS\sdmc\Nintendo 3DS\[id]\[id]\title\00040000\00132600\data\00000001\

The file is named savedataArc.txt in that directory.
