Hi,

 

You can import Mass Effect save files to Mass Effect 2 by using the configuration tool. 

 

1. After launching the game, choose Configure

2. Hit Saved Games options. 

3. Locate the Mass Effect 1 game data. By default, the directory is C:UsersYOURNAMEDocumentsBioWareMassEffectSave

4. Hit Mass Effect 2, Save Settings then Exit

5. Choose Play on Launcher, then hit New Game

6. Import Mass Effect 1

 

In the event that the list of Mass Effect 1 save data is empty, go to the folder C:UsersYOURNAMEDocumentsBioWareMassEffectSave and locate the save file you wish to import and copy it. You will need to paste it in  C:UsersYOURNAMEDocumentsBioWareMass Effect 2SaveME1. Launch the game, choose New Game, then Import Mass Effect 1.

Hi Donnaa,

    Let me give a simplest way to import characters from Mass Effect 1 to Mass effect 2. You just need to Run MassEffect2Config.exe in the Binaries folder of Mass Effect 2 found in Mass Effect 2 > Binaries directory, and then you can use this to import your saved profile. In that directory you can also find the Mass Effect 2 Launcher as well as the FAQ.
