Please modify the companion to allow us to specify a location to store the downloaded savegame zip files for each game, rather than having to save them in the Savegame folder (which is a terrible place for archives...). Without this, the RTC-like functionality is 100% useless to me, and many others that like archiving their savegame files...

Just put the backup function on, then it will only keep one archive (the latest) in the savegame folder and move everyone else to the directory you have specified. (keeping the amount specified, 0 - upwards and deleting the rest).
How can the RTC functionality be 100% useless
if the archives are in the savegame directory!
It works even if you have the archives in the savegame folder.
If you like to archive your savegame and plr files this app removes the need to do it manually, I can't see how that will make things harder for you??
And even if you'd make it manually, how would that differ from doing it manually today, the ddifference is that the companion downloads for you and unpacks for you.
If you want to move the files manually instead of letting it do it automatic go ahead.
I can't see that it requires that more work than unpacking the filess did in the past????
With the companion you need never enter your savegame folder in the explorer so I just plain don't see the problem!!!
Go into settings, move the mouse over the "Auto options" button and in the description display it will show
"here you can enable automatic backup of turns and player files",
do that.
Next download of a zip file it will move everyting (Including old files) as wanted where you want it.
The settings screen is cluttered but it has the description window that helps you along..
I can't promise that the backup functions works flawless as I don't know of anyone having used them, so I haven't worked on it that much as the demand for it seemed non-existant.
