Find My Boy! .sav files after running multiple instances

emulationmy-boy

I'm using the android emulator My Boy to play Pokemon Fire Red. There is an option to run multiple instances of the same game, and link with yourself. I used this option, but it looks like I saved a state with the emulator, where there was multiple instances.

I would like to transfer the save game to my pc now. For this I have to find the .sav file. Now when I load the rom, and then load the current state, and then save with the in-game save, the .sav file is not saved to the location of the rom (though the game still asks that there is a save file, do I want to owerwrite it)

Does anybody know the location of the savegames under the circumstances I'm in? Or does anybody have an idea where to look for them, or how can I find them?

After searching through my whole phone, installing android studio, trying to write and android app, failing, installing an app that monitors file operations, and furiously watching the write operations, I managed to solve it.

My app was outdated. I updated it. Now the .sav file of the saved states is in the folder where the state files are.
