World Save File Location

I am trying to locate the world save files for Valheim, but all my google searching has only led to one location (appdata\locallow\...), there is no locallow folder in my appdata. I am on a new pc so that might have something to do with it.
My pc has two drives, C and D. C drive has my OS, some other programs, and steam. D drive is the one with my steamlibrary files for Valheim.
I have tried showing hidden folders and searching around but this locallow folder still seems not to exist.

Thanks for your help!

Thanks for all your helpful replies! Turns out I was just dumb and didn't go to my user, instead i went to "default" in appdata.

try checking

C:/users/<yourusername>/AppData/LocalLow/IronGate/Valheim/

there should be two folders under that, worlds and characters.

one thing of note, I use Linux so the slashs are going to be reversed on a Windows system and I'n not 100% sure thats where you'll find the files on a Windows system but hopefully its a start.

good luck
Yep, I can conform that in windows your saves are located in
C:\Users\<yourusername>\AppData\LocalLow\IronGate\Valheim\

P.S. If you click on the magnifying glass in the bottom left (on windows 10) and type %locallow% and press enter an explorer window should open at that location.

<edited for the P.S.>
Good Luck!

the easiest way to access the world and character save folder is to start the game, then at the menu screen locate the player log button at the bottom left, clicking this will open the folder with the saves.
