Save file when archiving ACNH?

[LunaLili]

So I dumbly archive my digital copy of animal crossing so I'm now in the process of redownloading it but will my save file still be there, I have 400 hours into it and really dont want to lose all that progress

I believe when you archive a game, the save file is saved, unless you choose to delete it, too... but I doubt you would've done that accidentally. So I would guess it would be.

Ok thanks I was really worried about that when i realized I had archived it

From what I can find on this you should be fine, though admittedly I did not find much.

Yah, I can't say for sure since I haven't needed to archive anything in awhile, but back when I did it usually gave me the option the delete the save file... but I believe it saved it by default unless you said otherwise. But, again, it's been awhile

Ok thanks I guess I'll just have to wait and see when my game redownload and hope for the best! I accidentally archived when I was trying to make room for a new game and picked Animal Crossing instead of Pokemon Let's Go opps!

Save data is stored to the system's internal memory as separate data. Even if your game is also saved to the internal memory, it should still be fine.
