//which is fine if you don't need to move the save file between computers

var outFile:File = File.applicationStorageDirectory;
outFile = outFile.resolvePath(fileName);

//create a file output stream, which writes the byte stream to the file 
var outStream:FileStream = new FileStream();
outStream.open(outFile, FileMode.WRITE);
outStream.writeBytes(bytes, 0, bytes.length);
outStream.close();


//to load the file:
var inFile:File = File.applicationStorageDirectory;
inFile = inFile.resolvePath(fileName);

bytes = new ByteArray();

var inStream:FileStream = new FileStream();
inStream.open(inFile, FileMode.READ);
inStream.readBytes(bytes);
inStream.close();
