The easiest way to figure out where a game is writing its saves is to load it up in Sandboxie and save your game, then check sandboxie's box content to see what got updated or saved and where.
Also, Cyberpunk is on GOG (because it's made by the people who run GOG), there's no need to get it through DODI unless you have a severely restricted internet connection and therefore desperately need the smaller size of a repack - you can get the clean gog installer from gog-games. You should just be able to install the latest GOG version over the old version with no difficulty.
Yes, I was planning to download the new version from gog games. But when I installed the game I didn't think about gog games at all, when searching for games I often go directly to DODI.
Could you explain this Sandboxie method? I don't understand, what do I have to upload?
You can also check out Process Monitor which is a freeware tool from Microsoft. So basically what you would do is: open process monitor, make a new game save and then process monitor will show you where this save file is located.
