well for those playing machinarium on windows and with the irritating save game problem .. here is a fix
edit the below code to suit ur needs and then save the code as a .bat file..
use this bat file to play ur game always..
otherwise backups wont be made..
the first line being the machinarium game location
modify the <username> in the third line. change it to ur username
the last line being the location of the backups being made .:)
cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\Machinarium"
start /wait machinarium.exe
cd "C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia\Flash Player\#SharedObjects\"
xcopy *.* "e:\saved_machinarium\*.*" /e /i /h
ur saved data will be located at e:\saved_machinarium ..
