Don't Starve Save Slots
A 'Don't Starve' Mod written in Lua for adding save game slots to the Play menu - ifatree/moar-save-slots. Start Don't Starve and you should be able to load it just by selecting your third slot (which should show 1-35 instead of 1-1). I've done this with backup files several times. It is definitely easier when you turn off steam cloud though (can be done in the settings.ini file and will change location of your save files).
A well deserved rest, no doubt.”

Saving is an option available to the player and an integral mechanic of Don't Starve. The player can save and quit during any part of the game, and it will also automatically save at random intervals, usually once a game day. If the player dies and has a resurrection item, the game will also automatically save before the player is revived.
When the player dies with no resurrection items, unless they're playing in Adventure Mode, the save file will be deleted. Otherwise the progress made in Adventure Mode will be lost and the player will respawn with no penalty in front of Maxwell's Door. The player can also delete save files from the slot selection menu. Deleting a save file will not earn any of the Experience the player would've earned, which means that it's better to commit suicide if all characters are not unlocked.

There are four save files available in Don't Starve (Five with the Reign of GiantsDLC). When players pick an empty slot, they can first choose a character and customize the world before delving in. For world customization details, please go here. Each occupied slot shows an image of the character being played, the world number, and the world type (Sandbox Mode, Adventure Mode, Caves or Ruins), then the number of days survived in that world connected by a dash, unless the player is underground.
Each death will also be registered in the Morgue, whether or not it's permanent.
The save file can be found under:
If Steam Cloud is disabled (or release without Steam), players can find their save files under

Don't Starve Together
In Don't Starve Together, saving works similarly to Don't Starve, except that saves are only saved on the hosts computer, not the clients.
Rollback is a new feature that allows the host or an administrator of a world to instantly revert the current world to a previous save. This allows players to undo unwanted changes to a world and is a useful tool to fight griefing. The game will keep the last five saves of the world, meaning that the world can be rolled back a maximum of five days.
