First, a quick technical primer. A .sav file is a generic . Many video games use this extension to store player progress, settings, and configuration data.
Unlike standard .ini configuration files (such as GameUserSettings.ini ), which store basic textual data like resolution and volume levels, the Active.sav file contains compiled byte data. This data directly communicates with the game client to enforce specific rendering profiles, frame rate caps (FPS), and aim sensitivity parameters. Where is the Active.sav File Located? pubg active sav file
You can find the active.sav file using any file manager app on your Android device. Navigate to the following path (note that the exact path may vary slightly depending on your region's version of the game):
| Feature | PUBG Mobile (active.sav) | PUBG PC (Config Files) | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | | Stores in-game performance and graphics settings. | Stores graphics, audio, and control settings. | | Can it be edited? | Yes, but it's very risky. | Yes, it's allowed and common for PC games. | | Risk of a Ban | Very High (permanent ban). | Low (file verification may reset settings). | | What does it affect? | FPS caps, visual quality. | Keybinds, resolution, overall graphics presets. | Android/data/com
Ensure your device has at least 2GB–4GB of free RAM and enough storage space for the game's expanded resource packs.
On Android 11 and newer, the Android/Data folder is heavily restricted to protect app data. Standard file managers cannot access it. If you struggle to see the PUBG folder or copy the file, use the split-screen drag-and-drop method with a capable file manager app, use ADB, or temporarily connect your phone to a PC to bypass these restrictions. This data directly communicates with the game client
The game actively detects the processor and GPU, adjusting settings automatically. Forcing high settings on low-end devices via Active.sav is more likely to result in instability. Conclusion
