Or you can make your life easier and use a different browser. This should allow you to access the hidden file system and copy the XML file. To reiterate, I would navigate to the “Internet Explorer” directory listed below then search for, “angrybirds”. That is the file you want to copy, which you can do via the search pane or by right-clicking the file and selecting, “Open file location”. This search should bring up an XML file named something like, “” located in a randomly generated sub-directory. For most people the only way to really find it is by searching one directory below for “angrybirds”. This directory is a hidden system directory, so even if you have “Show hidden files and folders” enabled it still will not be visible. IE 9 stores progress in an XML file inside the “DOMStore” directory.
For that reason I highly recommend that you don’t use it unless you have to. While I believe it is possible to backup your progress it’s not nearly as easy or straight forward. IE 9 is a much different animal than the other browsers listed above. Win Vista or Win 7: C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Apple Computer\Safari\LocalStorage\ Internet Explorer 9 Win XP: C:\Documents and Settings\\Local Settings\Application Data\Apple Computer\Safari\LocalStorage\ In most cases the location of this file is listed below: The “0” in the file name above may be different in your case. Copy the “http_0.localstorage” file to a backup location or transfer it to another computer running Safari in order to restore your progress. Safari handles local storage just like Chrome. Win Vista or Win 7: C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xxxxxxx.Default\ Safari Win XP: C:\Documents and Settings\\Local Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xxxxxxx.Default\
WINDOWS BACKUP AND SYNC ALWAYS ON SHUTDOWN MAC OS
Mac OS X: ~/Library/Application Support/Firefox/Profiles/xxxxxxx.Default/ That means when you backup or transfer this file you’re also backing/transferring up anything else that might be stored in it, which you may or may not be okay with. Firefox stores all it’s local storage data in a single SQLite file called, “webappsstore.sqlite”. I believe this should work in Firefox 3.5 and above (previous versions don’t fully support HTML 5, so Angry Birds Chrome won’t even run). Linux: ~/.config/google-chrome/Default/Local Storage/ Firefox 3.5+ Win Vista or Win 7: C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Local Storage\ Win XP: C:\Documents and Settings\\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Local Storage\ Mac OS X: ~/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/Default/Local Storage/ Rather just COPY it to a backup directory - then if you’re wanting to transfer it to another computer - copy it to the respective directory on the other computer.Ĭopy the “http_0.localstorage” file to a backup location or transfer it to another computer running Chrome in order to restore your progress. This will prevent the files from being locked.

If there is something we’re missing feel free to leave a detailed comment below and we might be able to add it to the list. This list is not exhaustive, but it should cover the most common browsers and operating systems. Windows, Mac, Linux, etc.), operating system, and the primary browser/version you’re playing Angry Birds Chrome in (yes, you can play AB Chrome in other HTML 5 compliant browsers, except those on mobile devices). The location of the Local Storage directory depends on your platform (e.g. You CANNOT transfer from one browser to another though, so play in one browser and stick with it.
Per our testing you can transfer your progress between the SAME browser back and forth between Mac, PC, and Linux. Below you’ll find the location of these directories and the requisite file you need to backup and/or transfer. Rather it’s stored locally in your browsers local storage directory. There is one issue however, despite what most people think your progress is not stored in the cloud. There is no doubt that Angry Birds Chrome is awesome.
