I accidentally pressed F2 while starting up the emulator for Pokemon Ruby Destiny Rescue Rangers... This caused my save file to go *pppp* and since the save file is uploaded and downloaded from the server, there is no cookie for it that I could undo with Javascript. Could you please help?

I think you're saying that you accidentally saved and want to undo it. As far as I know, there is no way to do this. When you saved you overwrote the previous file. Your old game is pretty much gone. Sorry.

In the future you can backup your save file by going here:

https://www.vizzed.com/vizzedboard/retro/savefiles.php

Here are directions on how to use this feature:
Click the "Copy Slot 2" button for each file you want to back up. When I backed up my Rijon Adventures file, I copied the .sav file and the .sgm file. Now when you start a new game, it will be saved to Slot 1 automatically, but your original game will be safe in Slot 2. Later on, you can copy your new game to Slot 3, then copy your old game to Slot 1. That will return you to your original game. Your new game will also be backed up on Slot 3.

I advise backing up any games that you're concerned about. Keep in mind that you will have to back up the game each time you play if you want it to stay accurate.

Thanks, but I thought that the game was not overwritten, but uploaded to the server. So when I upload the saved state to the server, the old one is replaced?

You are basically saving over the same savestate slot, so yes, you have overwritten that save file, just like if you save over any other type of file.

I believe that the emulators on here only allow for one Save State slot. If you download an emulator for use on your PC, you will have more than 1 save state slot available.
