Problems with save files.

Regarding save files, there's an issue I haven't found a solution for on Google: is it possible to load save files made in a pirated version of the game into a licensed edition? If so, how do I find the directory to copy the save files from? (In the pirated version, everything was stored in "My Documents," in the user profile). Thank you in advance for your answer, although I'm already almost certain that it's not possible to load these save files into the licensed version.
