Make sure though you are making a backup copy just in case, even when just copying from a computer to another one with the same version. Going the other way around is a different story as some things in a 1.9 version of the game might not be here in a 1.7 version because it was added in the meantime, and thus could make the savegames not readable by the older version of the game.īut as said above, going from an older version to a newer is risk-less and can be done without problem.
When updating games, game studios take extreme care of backward compatibility (as they don't want to upset people) and thus don't remove content, only add it (removing content can happen, but then they have put fixes and patches to actually make your savegame compatible). If in doing so you were at risk to lose your savegames, this would have resulted in thousands of upset players, and would probably have ended in riots and Bethesda losing their heads! :)
Since Skyrim is mostly used through Steam, pretty much all the players playing Skyrim had at some point to update the game (or have it automatically updated through Steam). Transferring savegames towards a newer version of the game is guaranteed to be riskless.
