This is literally the ONLY refresh video that explains every way to do so clearly, easily, and concisely. As a Switch Lite User, this DOES work. Thank you!

[@JadeMistGaming]

You're so welcome!! Happy Hunting!

[@LisaG27]

I have accidentally purchased something in Scrooge's then immediately shut it down on my Steam Deck, and it still refreshed. Glad you made this video so more people can join in on the fun! 😊

[@jannelarlene2334]

ive done this on xbox and works as well ☺

[@Phantttasia3]

I thought for whatever reason i could make advantage of this.. bought... it did refresh.. bought.. refresh.. yeah nothing i bought actually saved. Lol just so everyone else can know too.

[@Just_Alice.]

Thank you soooo much! ❤ This is a game changer! I play on Switch and tried several times to shut my console down but through the menu and didn't understand why it was not working. You're the first I see explaining how to do it to make it work and it works wonderfully! I will finally be able to refresh my shop and enjoy the game again! 😊 Edit to add you gained a new subscriber in me 🎼🎵🎶

[@JadeMistGaming]

Thank you!! So glad you're able to refresh now. Happy Hunting!

[@choukoto]

Update for PS4 users: Scrooge Shop refresh works exactly as she said for PS5 users. The PS4 one doesn't work anymore. Follow her advice and you will get the result you are working for. I'm doing multiple refreshes without any issues anymore. Important notes: It doesn't matter if the game autosaves at the start. What really matters is the moment when you enter the shop and the 5 minutes period until the next one. Ignore quests/characters! Literally everything. Your main focus is Scrooge. Go inside. Check your stuff. DON'T BUY ANYTHING. DON'T AUTOSAVE MANUALLY. DON'T CLOUDSAVE. Press Power Button while you are inside the shop and the console will shut down some seconds later. Restart the game and repeat the process until you are satisfied. Best luck finding the items you are looking for.

[@courtnieduffel]

Thank you SO MUCH for sharing, especially for the Switch reset. I can’t believe I’ve went this long without knowing I could reset so now it’s on to hunting for those items I want! ❤

[@JadeMistGaming]

You're welcome!! Happy Hunting!

[@choukoto]

Some Feedback from a new DDLV Player on PS4: I have tried this method everyday for the last 3 days and it did not work me at all. However, today it finally worked. I was able to refresh for 3 times successfully until I was stuck to a certain set. Seems like I was simply too slow in the end. Important: You barely have time to look around. Go straight up upstairs, take a quick look at the items and shut down the game immediately! Do not run to the other side! I think, it just costs too much time. Idk. I did that for the last attempt and I couldn't refresh anymore. I will keep on trying and testing around, though. Will come back later. 🤗 Thank you so much for providing this information.

[@choukoto]

@@100millioneuros People told me, it still works for them on PS5. They do daily refreshes. It doesn't work for me on PS4 anymore since the Rift of Time update.

[@Ladyartemicia]

You gave me this advice for PS5 as well on Star's stream, the only caveat I would give for using this method is that you can run a risk of damaging or resetting your system hardware if you do this too often in a row. The console really hates when it is shut down incorrectly and will rebuild your database each time, enough times of doing this and it might just reset your whole system. This did actually happen to me last year, but It was due to a power failure and my battery backup was not functioning. I am personally too scared to attempt this being my husband would KILL me if I destroyed his Valentines gift to try to get items in DDV. If anyone with more knowledge about the risks involved with this can give me some peace of mind, then I would be very grateful.

[@enchantressxX3]

Yeah now that I think about it it's not worth brakeing a consoul for dreamlight valley new items

[@JadeMistGaming]

There are definitely risks with gaming consoles such as PlayStation and Xbox but the Switch has a force shut down specifically implemented that will not harm it. The force shut down from Nintendo was an intentional feature that they would not have put if it harms the console. But yes, I do agree it could potentially harm over time a Playstation or Xbox so do proceed with caution and maybe only do it one in a while if you prefer. ;-) Thanks for stopping by!

[@Ladyartemicia]

@@JadeMistGaming Yea, I have only done it a couple of times myself when I had 0 new items in the shop, thankfully the patch notes for the upcoming update indicate we might be seeing less duplicates in the shop so fingers crossed it will feel less like a necessity in the future!.

[@enchantressxX3]

@JadeMistGaming love watching your KZbin channel and live streams but I don't think I'll be refreshing scrooges store on my ps5 ill have to pass on that

[@JadeMistGaming]

@@enchantressxX3 And that is 100% perfectly fine. It's not written in stone that everybody has to be doing this. :D You continue playing the way YOU want to play. Always remember that.

[@susang1473]

THANK YOU !!!! I play on Switch. It has been so frustrating watching people refresh the shop until they good something good, while I've been stuck with whatever is there. I had no idea holding down the power button past the menu would shut down the Switch.

[@JadeMistGaming]

Yay!!! I'm so glad you're finally able to do it!! Happy Hunting! 🎉🥳

[@JadeMistGaming]

For those of you creating a batch file and are saying it's not working, you can use this text instead and see if it works for you as well. It works for be with either one but use whichever is best for you. Just copy and past this: taskkill /IM ddv.exe /T /F Another important thing to note: Your shop MUST be fully upgraded in order to be able to refresh. Shops that are not fully upgraded will not refresh at all. If you still have a Scrooge construction sign outside your shop, your shop is NOT fully upgraded. Get that done asap before saying this doesn't work. Happy Hunting!!

[@haleylapetitesirene3920]

I hope the new code will work, now I have to wait tomorrow 😂 the first one saved my game 😭

@@haleylapetitesirene3920 Awesome!! Thanks for the update!

[@sanchez1009]

Hello, I’m VERY new to the refresh concept…. So what exactly are you supposed to do after you create the batch file? It’s a little unclear… do i just double click on it and the game shuts? (I’m on PC btw)

[@JadeMistGaming]

@@sanchez1009 Yes, you just double click on the file and it will automatically shut down your game. :)

[@Supercfc1888]

I'm on ps4 and i tried to do the reset as soon as i heard of it and found that no way of closing the game through pressing the ps button or going into the menus to close the game or turn off/restart the ps4 would work for me. So i was convinced that it was just a pc hack/exploit until i found the power button trick. Holding down the power button after i've checked the store has worked for me 100% of the time with 0 issues. If only you could ensure what you get on refreshing cos first thing i went for was the fountain tile and my god i refreshed Scrooges for hours till i finally got it. So while some may find certain ways dont work there will be some way of making it work for your system. Thank you for spreading the valuable info.

[@JadeMistGaming]

Congrats on getting the fountain tile! So glad it worked for you. Happy Hunting!!

[@Supercfc1888]

@@JadeMistGaming Thankfully the update is tomorrow, cos having finished the game 100% - everything, even every dreamlight duty in every section, even got my platinum trophy - i've found that i'm now spending longer refreshing Scrooge's looking for items than i am actually playing the game lol.

[@tewijeon]

May I ask how did you do it? I’ve tried via video explanation but it didn’t work for me I’m on ps4 as well

[@Supercfc1888]

@@tewijeon I found that to get it to refresh for me I run into Scrooge's first thing & if there's nothing I'm wanting I hold down the ps4's power button and it powers down the ps4. Then switch it back on and reload ddv, Scrooge's will be reset and you can either buy or reset again if there's nothing.

[@tewijeon]

@@Supercfc1888 thanks for tip 🥹 I tried it and it worked!!! Omg if we can gift in multiplayer then wanna gift you materials as a thank you 😭 so happy I can try refreshing now

[@thebellarrific]

I literally bought a steam deck so I could refresh. However, the game works so much better on it than my switch so I’m keeping the steam deck. Thanks for the video!

[@KitsuneKizukiGames]

Thank you for the refresh tip Jademist I've been earning more money to buy a lot from Scrooge’s Store so this is a huge help to know. I'll let you know how it worked out on my end once I give this a go!💖💖💖💖💖

[@cozyelfheim]

This is so helpful! I wanted to add in my own experience that if you do want to do any daily’s before resetting (claim your chests for the day, buy from Kristoff, gather resources) I have been successful in doing them all at the beginning of opening the game and then going in and manually saving once I’m done and then still being able to go into Scrooges and start my resetting (this is all on the Xbox series S that I’ve tested this on, not sure about the others). I also wanted to say I’ve been successful with the game not auto saving after I’ve bought something in Scrooges and then last minute changing my mind that I wanna keep going with resetting, and I’ve checked the time on the last save after purchasing and it does not auto save it after I buy so I’ve been able to force close again and when I go back in the shop has reset. Again, this is what I’ve seen just on Xbox series S!

[@LisaG27]

I've reset immediately after purchasing something by accident in Scrooge's on my Steam Deck, and it worked, too.

[@RedK5]

I forgot to come back to thank you. I didn't know that I could do this on Switch. I got rock rug because of you

[@JadeMistGaming]

That's great!! Congrats! So glad I could help you out. :D

[@khaleesiharjogaming9095]

Thank you so much for this! The bat file for PC works perfectly. I will say for anyone who is just going to the outside of your shop and seeing the same outfits in the window go inside. I thought it hadn't worked at first because the outfits in the windows hadn't changed. But it did! I got the hedge maze I've been waiting ages for.

[@beharmonika]

I had no idea that this could be done on switch! Thank you so much for this!!

[@beccamillae9602]

Let me know if you can make it work, I cannot 😢

[@beharmonika]

@beccamillae9602 It has worked for me for the past two days. I followed her video exactly. I make sure that I check as soon as I log in. The game auto refreshes every 4-5 minutes. If I don't see something I want, I hit the home button while I am still inside the shop. Then hold the power button until the screen goes completely blank. This takes at least 6-8 seconds and shuts down the console completely. Restart and repeat those steps until you see something you want. Happy hunting!

[@TheTruck557]

I do this on the Switch all the time. Works great. Just do it just like Jade said and it will work.

[@echostarpals]

Thanks to you I was able to find the window to paris, the stained glassed beauty and the beast window and so many hair styles! Everyday in this game is so exciting now I can reset 🥰

[@eileenbeaton5595]

[@beccamillae9602]

I have tried this 2 days in a row on switch. Following all the specific instructions.... it has not worked on switch now even with 3 resets in the first minute. .....

[@JadeMistGaming]

I'm sorry to hear it's not working for you. The switch seems to be pretty temperamental. The only thing I can recommend is that you just keep trying. Make sure your game is completely open and not minimized, hold that power button down fully and wait for that pop up to fully disappear.

[@Flame.G]

Also another thing that doesn't save the game for me is if you buy something from Scrooge let's say a wallpaper and then run to my house to try it, if I reset it, it will still have new items in the shop (PC and xbox)

[@teresamartinez5004]

Thank you so much for doing this video ❤😊

[@Timelord-gn5rh]

Hello, tried this method you described on PS4 and it dosen't work. thanks though! Must have been patched.

[@StnedDreamer]

YAAAAY Thank you so much ❤

[@jessicajimenez4602]

I have the switch. I have tried this so many times and it doesn’t work for me. Does anyone know if the game saves automatically when you go into the store and how to turn that off? Once I start my game, I go into the store right away. Is that the problem?

[@JadeMistGaming]

No, the game does not save automatically when you enter the store. Various switch users confirm it still works for them. Be sure you hold down the button all the way past that shut down menu. Also, be sure your scrooge shop is fully upgraded and you haven't voted on dreamsnaps or bought any premium shop items before trying to reset.

[@crispycrafts1520]

Now I know how to do it on my steam deck 😱

[@shannonwitkiss8239]

I’m a switch user and this didn’t work for me , but does this work if you have bought something from Scrooge then refreshed afterwards , and that’s what I did and it won’t refresh the items but I’ve seen that people have done this too and it’s refreshed for them

[@JadeMistGaming]

Generally no, it doesn't work once you've already bought something. The auto save usually triggers once you've bought an item but others have closed it super fast after buying and it has worked. It's better to not have bought anything before resetting.

[@SaberAstaris]

I'm having an issue where I use the .bat and it isn't resetting my store, and tips or advice that may help. (my store is fully upgraded) I'm pretty much doing, boot up game > walk into store > alt-tab > then double clicking the .bat file.

[@JadeMistGaming]

Be sure to use the updated batch file text in the pinned comment, not the one in the video. That should fix it up.

[@SaberAstaris]

I just waited an extra day and used the updated version, but when i did it before it wasn't working but it works now tysm!@@JadeMistGaming

Sorry to say this does not work on the switch. I did exactly what you said to do. I moved my house right in front of Scrooge’s store came out of my house, went into the store. touched the store door you can see on the bottom that it’s saving you got the little thing spinning went in everything I’ve already had held down the button, like you said, waited for that other screen to go away, logged back on went back in the same items so I thought at this point I’m gonna check and it said saved 56 seconds ago, so it doesn’t work on the switch

[@JadeMistGaming]

I'm sorry to hear it's not working for you. I can confirm though 100% that many switch users are able to do it and confirmed during various live streams with me it was working for them perfectly. Sadly, it can be unpredictable it seems. Best advice I can give is to keep trying. I too always get the spinning wheel when entering the shop even on PC. That doesn't mean anything even though it looks like it's saving. It's just the loading animation. Best of luck!!

[@jackieremmenga1191]

@@JadeMistGaming ok but when you touch the door to go in you can see the little star thing at the bottom that is saving. Do you have a past stream that I can watch

[@AnnaInReaderland]

When you say items is this only furniture because I’ve seen a few videos where they buy out all the clothing and yet the reset still works. The clothing has just all been bought.

[@JadeMistGaming]

It's all items. When you see gold coins on the platforms on the left in some, it just means that section has been bought out already in the past an there is nothing else to spawn at the moment. The minute you buy anything at all in shop or premium shop, the reset won't work.

I have a switch and I did this and my store was still the same and yes I still held the button past the menu. Method doesn’t work!

[@JadeMistGaming]

I have confirmed 100% with switch players this method does work. Is your scrooge shop fully upgraded? Be sure to not vote on dreamsnaps or buy anything from the premium shop before attempting to reset and do it within the first few mins of opening the game. 5 mins is the cut off but better before the 5.

[@LucyBarlett]

I'm a windows player user. The command made my game shut down, but for some reason it did not refreshed by game. I don't know why. I went into the game straight to the store, and then I used the command, restart my game, but the items were still the same. Any idea what that could be?

[@JadeMistGaming]

Hi there. You'll see an updated pinned message showing an extra text to put into your batch file that will help you. Add /T /F to the entire text at the end and that should work. ;-) So it should read as follows: taskkill /IM ddv.exe /T /F Sorry about that! Happy Hunting!

[@dravin815]

You can also change day and time on switch and a new store will ope. Each day

[@JadeMistGaming]

That's what is called "Time travelling" and is highly advised not to do. That can break your game. You can't go back to the previous day and play the game like normal if you time travel. Resources won't drop and wild crops won't be harvestable. Only way to fix it is to let the game catch up in real life to whatever time you time travelled to. Again, highly recommend you do NOT time travel in DDV.

[@JadeMistGaming]

Be sure you haven't already shopped for the day. It should be done first thing before playing the game. Also, be sure you haven't bought from the premium shop yet or voted on dreamsnaps as that will trigger auto saves. If you are starting at Eternity Isle and traveling back to the valley then resetting, it won't work either. You'll have to upgrade the shop in Eternity Isle. Also, the shop needs to be fully upgraded in order to work. Best of luck!

[@lumimoonplays]

Does it just not work for some switches? I have tried in the past and again just now I followed exactly along with your video and the shop has the same items when I go back in. I am in the game less than a minute, I am holding down the power button until the entire switch shuts all the way off. I know I am doing it all right but the shop items stay the same. 😢

i have tried this for switch, I fell victim to TT in the game and have been stuck on the same day for lord knows how long, not sure how to check internal timer to match time since going days ahead doesnt exactly fix it. I am aware the devs are not going to fix this and i’d hate to lose so much time in the game and make a new one risking losing all of the things ive gotten, however if that is the case I know purchases made will still be accessible. If there is a trick on how to see the internal timer i will absolutely do whatever to try before end result, starting a new game.

[@JadeMistGaming]

Unfortunately, there is no way of knowing what date was the original TT date. I'm sorry. :( I hope it works out for you!

[@ayla1219]

Works on switch tried it today I don't get why others are having trouble with it

[@robo7643]

I'm generally playing when Scrooge's shop refreshes at 2am (for me). Does the 'day' count as when his shop refreshes?

[@JadeMistGaming]

Yes. If you start playing at 2am, which is the start of the time cycle, and refresh until you find something, you can't refresh again until the next 2am mark the next day.

[@catherineperez1005]

i’ve bought something in the shop multiple times and then reset and it worked, that’s weird. but when i reset my shop today it didn’t work cause my windows computer updated so that’s why i’m at this video today

[@JadeMistGaming]

Are you using the batch file or going to the resource monitor? It still works for me but just be sure you don't buy anything before resetting. Also be sure to use the batch file text in the pinned comment. ;-)

[@catherineperez1005]

@@JadeMistGaming i was using the task manager but i’m gonna try the way u showed in the video tomorrow and see if it works. and i didn’t buy anything when i tried to reset today

[@miiau_pt]

It is possible to buy everytime before shutdown? For example, i see something i like, and i want to refresh and also keep that stuff with me.

[@JadeMistGaming]

You can not keep the items if you are refreshing.

[@Squidnie]

QUESTION!! How far into your day can you do this? Do you have to do this first thing when you get on for the day? Or can you do it at any point in the day? I want Woody’s hat and boots! 😢

[@JadeMistGaming]

It has to be the first thing you do. Your game will auto save at 5 mins into the game which will in turn remove any chance in resetting.

[@ebsmites7544]

So hey. I was so glad when i saw this video. I like to use my mac for ddlv. Now when i heard that you can refresh the shop by force quitting via the activity monitor on mac. I was like im gonna try it. So i did try a few times. But after i forced quite it and walked into my shop there was no new items. It hasn't refreshed. I was so sad, so am i doing something wrong?

[@JadeMistGaming]

Sadly I personally don't use a mac. The info is based on what others have told me so I'm unable to help out on that one. Hopefully some other mac users can come in and comment for you. Best of luck!

[@user-pp6kn8uv9t]

When you say “then do it” what do you mean? I walk into the Scrooge store, hold down the power button on switch until the menu pops up, then closes automatically. Then what do I do? Open the menu again and power off? Or do I exit with the home button and force quit the app? Thanks so much btw

[@JadeMistGaming]

What I meant by "then do it" is let go of the power button. Hold down the power button until that entire menu of options disappears. Do not let go to choose any of those options. Just let the switch completely turn off by itself while you hold down the power button. 😁 How that helps!

[@user-pp6kn8uv9t]

@@JadeMistGaming thank you so much for clarifying! I just tried it but I must have done it wrong. Are you supposed to be in the store before the store resets or just walk in after? Going to try again tomorrow for sure

[@JadeMistGaming]

You should have your game open when you do it. You can be in the store or anywhere in your Valley. 😁

[@breanas_mommy]

​@@user-pp6kn8uv9tI can't get it to work on my switch either lol

[@user-pp6kn8uv9t]

@@breanas_mommyit actually started working for me but only if the game was turned off right before Scrooge store resets, then I’d open the game, enter Scrooge shop, hold down to power off and open the game and re enter. Sometimes it wouldn’t work the second try, but it would on the third. But I haven’t had it working for a few months now. I thought one of the newer updates nerfed it for everyone but maybe it still works for some ppl

[@JuFraccaroli]

I dont know if I am lucky. But I always get in front of the store and manually save it before entering. I can refere-se normally.

[@Bluetangg]

Ok. Basic question. How do you get to the batch file when DDV is running in full screen? Some kind of Steam key input?

[@JadeMistGaming]

You can press Alt+Tab on your keyboard to get out of that screen and move to another or you can press Alt+Enter to go into a windowed mode when you're ready to go to desktop.

[@preciousjen88]

boo! i refreshed it on my switch but I still have the same items. Did it exactly like you showed in the video. Do I need to be in Scrooge's shop to refresh?

[@JadeMistGaming]

No, you don't need to be in the shop for it to work. It does, however, have to be the first thing you do in the game before the auto save triggers. Your shop should be fully upgraded and no previous purchases for the day should have been done. Hope it works!

[@NerdyPanda-td1tz]

This definitely no longer works after the last update. Did everything, and it seems the game saves moment you enter the valley now 😢 also after I bought some things, used the bat file and it did not reset the store back to how it was before I bought things, even tho I closed it before I saved. Seems like the game saves automatically again when you try and force the close down with the file… really sucks 😢 wish I found this earlier.

[@JadeMistGaming]

It still definitely works after the update. I have been doing it just fine. Be sure you look at the pinned comment for the updated correct batch file info.

[@NerdyPanda-td1tz]

@@JadeMistGaming strange I tried it 20 times and the game instantly saves moment I log into the game :( I followed exactly, the note pad, saving it as .bat for PC, sadly did not work :( try again tomorrow we will see.

[@JadeMistGaming]

@@NerdyPanda-td1tz Definitely try again tomorrow. The game 100% does not save as soon as you start. That will never change. Make sure you don't buy anything from the premium shop and don't vote on dreamsnaps before refreshing. That will cause an instant auto save. Good luck!

[@NerdyPanda-td1tz]

Odd, when i logged on this morning it said "saved 1 min 45 seconds ago" which is why i was thinking they changed it lol does it count if i voted on dreamsnaps days prior? @@JadeMistGaming

[@JadeMistGaming]

@@NerdyPanda-td1tz No, only for the current day. Prior days are okay. I never pay attention to the menu on when it says it saves. It may say it has saved but it 100% hasn't auto saved instantly. I promise. Try it again tomorrow. :) I do it almost daily and I'm on PC.

[@scarlettrivera8287]

I tried both the batch file and the resource monitor and it didn’t work. I did it within the 5 minutes and nothing. Not sure what I’m doing wrong or if I’m the recent update they fixed this.

[@JadeMistGaming]

Definitely not fixed. I did it just this morning. Be sure to check the pinned comment for the updated batch file text you need. Also, be are your shop is fully upgraded and if you're starting in eternity isle trying to go to the valley, it won't work. Best of luck!

[@destinir3739]

I launched the game, went to the store, bought some stuff, and refreshed it - I lost the items i bought, the store was completely full after refresh, which was a massive bummer. I went in again, bought some stuff, and refreshed. Lost the items, full store. So you can't buy something then refresh the remaining items? I also somehow lost 900 moonstones in this process - I hadn't even looked at the premium shop but when I logged out yesterday I had 900 more than I do today. 😭

[@JadeMistGaming]

You cannot buy items and refresh. The reset is only to refresh the shop until you find something you want. Then you buy and wait until the next day to refresh again. Moonstones are not affected in this process.

[@destinir3739]

I definitely bought items, I just didn't get to keep them. I'm not sure what the moonstone glitch is about - maybe a cloud save mismatch.@@JadeMistGaming

[@RedHeadMERMAID83]

HELP! My store is half empty everyday. I’ve contacted the developers 7 times over a year trying to get this resolved, but they say the same thing every time….we’re working on it! It should be better on the next update! It’s been 4 updates now…. Do you know how to fix this?

[@JadeMistGaming]

Half empty meaning the clothing and left side table just have piles of gold coins instead of items? If so, then your game is working just fine and nothing needs to be fixed. That just means you've already bought out everything from that section and the game has nothing more to offer you. Once the game has more updates, more clothing options will be available. There is no need to contact devs to get this looked at.

[@tami3456]

I'm kind of confused.. does this method only work if you haven't bought anything in the store? Also, the game keeps autosaving right when I enter the store so does that impact the soft reset in any way?

[@JadeMistGaming]

It only works if you haven't bought anything in the store, premium shop, voted on dreamsnaps, etc.. The icon that shows on the bottom of your screen as soon as you walk into the store does not mean it's saving. The game gives you about 5 mins from the start of the day to auto save. That's just a loading icon between scenes from the outdoors going in.

[@Flame.G]

Actually I bought stuff from Scrooge and then reset it, it was different items (playing on pc and xbox) both times didn't save at all

[@BreakdowntheFacts]

Thanks for this video. I’m having some trouble w/ this method and the switch. After I power down and turn it back on and I log in again. It’s the same. Am I missing a step?

[@JadeMistGaming]

Have you already bought anything from the shop today or been in your valley today? Also, is your shop fully upgraded? It should be about 12-15 seconds holding down the power button. Make sure you don't minimize the game before shutting it down as well.

[@BreakdowntheFacts]

@@JadeMistGaming yes I already purchased something and also been in the valley. Would that impact it or does it have to be a new day no purchase made then do the steps?

[@JadeMistGaming]

@@BreakdowntheFacts Yes, that makes a huge impact. You can only do the reset first thing starting the game for the day. I suggest trying first thing tomorrow. :D

[@charlottemclaren3804]

i just tried this on switch, followed the advice exactly. it DOES NOT WORK. 😭😭😭

[@JadeMistGaming]

Sorry you weren't able to get it work. Be sure your shop is fully upgraded, you haven't voted on dreamsnaps and you do it first thing before anything else. Hold down that button fully until it completely turns off. I have already confirmed with various switch users again it is 100% still working for them. Best of luck!

[@jennyj1348]

Noooooo😮😮😮 I’ve been swearing every single day in my shop, only get 500 shades of kitchen cabinets and tables. I know what I’m going to be doing tomorrow on my switch😍. But a question, can we buy one thing or two and then refresh anyway?

[@JadeMistGaming]

No, you can't buy anything and refresh unfortunately. Gotta refresh until you see something you definitely want then do it again the next day. :)

[@Erynn12]

Something is missing in the batch file It should be taskkill /f /im ddv.exe Without the /f it closes the application, it doesn't force close it, so the game still has time to save Another thing is that the store is generated when you enter it, so you can play your game normally before you enter the store for the first time. I like to save before I go in, after completing some regular tasks here and there!

[@_abbadoo_]

I haven’t tried resets yet so this is a genuine question - if the store doesn’t generate until entering, what triggers the window clothing items?

[@visualsiren89x]

So for ps5, open the game. Go in the shop. If nothing I like, hold tje ps power button and turn it off and try again?

[@JadeMistGaming]

Correct.

[@anniesui7703]

Is it possible to refresh store item that I’ve already shopped some of items and game saved ? Or I need to wait for a day when the time Scrooge store auto refresh then do this action?

[@JadeMistGaming]

If you have already bought stuff from the shop for the day and your game has saved, you need to wait until the next day to try again.

Sometimes it will still refresh if you did it fast enough after buying something but whatever you buy will not be in your inventory if you refresh.
