Can you post the code that creates the JSON file?
var save_dictionary = {
"easy_high_score" : 0,
"nomal_high_score" : 0,
"music" : true,
"sfx" : true
}
const save_path = "res://save/save.json"
func load_data():
var save_file = File.new()
if save_file.file_exists(save_path) == true:
save_file.open(save_path, File.READ)
var json_string = save_file.get_line()
save_file.close()
save_dictionary = parse_json(json_string)
else:
print("no save")
func save_data():
var json_string = to_json(global.save_dictionary)
var save_file = File.new()
save_file.open(global.save_path, File.WRITE)
save_file.store_line(json_string)
save_file.close()
In this state, the load_data function is executed in the title scene
If the json file does not exist, it is created

res:// is no valid save path IMHO. This directory is read only on some platforms including android. (comparable to “Program Files” in Windows).
Save and load your data to/from user:// instead.

Oh I see
I tested it on my pc before exporting it to Android, but I do not know where it is stored on my pc
I can not see the folder or file related to save when I go to ‘Drive C - User’

I found out where it was stored.
But I put the folder name in front of the file name, but I did not create the folder
So I deleted the folder name part and the file was created
But I do not know where Android is generated.
Even if you search the internet, all the answers have only links to the wrong posts

Android allows only file writes for apps to user://. And, if you enable the access right for it, they can also read/write in public “SD-Card” space. (Unless you use a rooted device.)
Android expects apps to write their “private” data into user://. This data can not be read or written by other apps.
You can create folders in user://, no problem. The operating system decides where the path is. Normally you don’t have to bother. In Windows 10 for example, you find these files under: C:\Users\<MyUserName>\AppData\Roaming\Godot\app_userdata\<MyProjectName>

So how do I access the user: // file on Android?
Do I have to connect to my pc and find the file on my pc?
I will use a method to clear the file and recreate it to make sure that the changes in the values are applied correctly
To do so, I need to be able to access the file

user:// is a whole path. So you can save your file under that path like you tried with res://
const save_path = "user://save.json"
You can access that file from your app.
You can delete that file from your app. If you want to know the contents then you can read it into a variable and dump the output with print(variable) while debugging it.
Directory offers some methods dealing with files. You can delete files or create directories as you like.
Directory — Godot Engine (3.1) documentation in English
On Android, all files in the user:// path will be deleted when you uninstall an app. (But not on updates)
So the easiest way to delete android files in user:// which you ie.e. created during testing is to simply uninstall the app.

Right. I’ll have to test it by deleting the app and reinstalling it. Thank you very much !
