You'll know you're in the right folder if the files have names like SaveXXXX.sav and their Content Title is 'Borderlands 2'. In the folder for your profile, your save files should be found in 5454087C/00000001/. All Steam achievements are available for any new characters you create on Steam. Select your USB drive and choose 'Open Drive'. Unique items are usually rewarded from a challenging task completing a specific mission or defeating a certain enemy, and feature special abilities that are often related to the mission and/or enemy that provides it, and a specially colored skin. Backing up characters often is advisable. Keeping originals when manipulating or modding. Reverting a character to a previous time for repeated farming, testing, or playing with friends. Transference from one system/console to another. Conflicting cloud saves on steam from crashed games.

Yet, it is not sure that Steam will register those achievements consistently. In Borderlands, Borderlands 2, Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel, and Borderlands 3, there are sets of items known as Unique. There are several reasons to back up a character or save file. Some Steam achievements may still be acquired on the same character if you complete certain tasks. If you transfer an Epic save files to your Steam account (Steam supports Borderlands 3 later than Epic), the save data won’t sync between these two platforms, and you won’t receive your STEAM achievements that you already have with that save files. However, the files transferring process will only update the locally saved files, for cloud existing savings, just refresh them to reflect the new files. Then, when next time you start your game, all preferences and characters in both Epic and Steam version of Borderlands will show up. Those files include a profile.sav (tracking your Options preferences) and all numbered.sav files (representing your Vault Hunters). To transfer files from Borderlands Steam save location to Borderlands Epic save location, just copy all items from the source platform folder, and paste them into the destination platform folder.
