Undertale – Deleting and Resetting Genocide Files in Current Year

Here’s a guide on how to completely delete the sys_information_962 e sys_information_963 files from Undertale on your computer and Steam Cloud.

Introdução

If you’re looking at this guide, you might have accidentally given away your soul to a little kid and want it back without anyone knowing. Infelizmente, the online solutions haven’t been helping you much. The good news is, removing sys_info_962 and sys_info_963 is still doable, and it’s not much tougher than before!

Pré-requisitos

Antes de começar, there are a couple of things you have to do.

Steam ID and the App ID Folder

Primeiramente, you’ll need your Steam ID. Para encontrá-lo, click on your username in the top right corner of Steam, então selecione “Account Settings.” On the account settings page, your Steam ID will be right under your username.

Agora, let’s locate the Undertale App ID folder. Open File Explorer on your computer, clique em “Este PC” in the left menu, and select your C Drive. Navegue até “Arquivos de programas (x86),” então vá para “Vapor,” e depois disso, abrir “Userdata.” Neste cardápio, find the folder that matches your Steam ID. Por último, locate and open the folder named “391540.” Don’t worry about it now; just keep it open for later.

The Undertale Folder

Open another File Explorer window and click on the bar at the top. Type in %appdata% and press enter. This will lead you to the “Roaming” pasta. In the bar where you entered %appdata% earlier, clique em “Dados do aplicativo” to go to the AppData folder. De lá, clique no “Local” folder and find the “UNDERTALE” pasta. Como antes, we’ll revisit this folder later, so keep it open for now.

Downgrading the Game

Por último, the only thing remaining is to downgrade your Undertale to an older version. Right-click on Undertale in Steam and select “Propriedades.” Neste cardápio, clique em “Betas” e então escolha “Beta Participation.” Opt for “old_version_100 – old_version_100,” and Steam will install version 1.0 of Undertale automatically. This step is crucial and essentially the main reason why this method is effective.

How to Avoid Issues when Deleting the Files

Now that we’ve completed all the necessary steps, we can begin the process of reclaiming your soul.

Corrupting your Steam Cloud Data

Para começar, close Steam entirely. Depois disso, revisit the 391540 folder we located earlier and open the remote folder within it. Dentro, you’ll find either a file named “sys_information_962” ou “sys_information_963,” depending on your interaction with Chara. Regardless of which one it is, the process remains the same. Open the file with Notepad. If there’s text, erase it entirely; if it’s empty, add any text you’d like. Save your changes and close the file.

Próximo, voltar para o 391540 pasta, delete the file named “remotecache.vdf,” and then launch Steam. If you encounter a “File Conflict” for Undertale, you’re on the right path. Attempt to start Undertale, and Steam will display a warning about a “Cloud Conflict.” Antes de prosseguir, go back to the 391540 folder and delete everything in it. Então, return to the Cloud Conflict menu and select the “Local Save” opção, and click continue. This step will eliminate the file that has been replacing your sys_information_962 or sys_information_963 file each time you delete it, mas ainda não terminamos.

Removing Genocide For Good

Para encerrar as coisas, right-click on Undertale and select “Propriedades” mais uma vez. In the General menu, turn off the “Manter save games in the Steam Cloud for Undertale” opção, and then exit Steam again. Completely delete the 391540 folder and the UNDERTALE folder you identified at the beginning of the guide. Open Steam and return to the Betas menu from earlier, Em seguida, escolha “None.”

Agora, all that remains is to launch Undertale, reach the first save point, and save the game. Close Steam, re-enable the “Keep save games in the Steam Cloud for Undertale” opção, E você terminou! Parabéns, you’ve successfully reclaimed your soul from the little one you made a promise to!

How to Avoid Issues without Deleting the Files

If you’re not concerned about removing the sys_information_962 or sys_information_963 files and just want to play Undertale without facing Genocide consequences, there’s an easier method that skips the previous steps.

In the UNDERTALE folder, locate the sys_information_962 or sys_information_963 file, right-click it, e escolha “Propriedades.” Então, Vá para “Segurança” e clique “Editar…” Sob “Group or user names,” selecione “SYSTEM,” and for each option under “Permissions for ‘SYSTEM’,” verificar “Deny.” Clique “Aplicar” e então “OK” no fundo, and you’re finished. Genocide consequences are now avoided!

No entanto, please note that if you ever uninstall and reinstall Undertale or attempt to delete the files, you’ll need to repeat this process.
