Steam Game Save Backup

Welcome to the Steam Game Save Backup project! This tool helps you automate the process of backing up save files for your Steam games. It retrieves the save paths from PCGamingWiki, filters the paths, and backs up the save files to another directory. Finally, it generates a text file listing the backed-up games.
