No save

[Vishniac]

Hello!

The game plays perfectly but it doesn't save.
No wonder why: after looking, I saw that it didn't create any folder in Documents/MyGames
Should I just totally uninstall and re-install and checking the path or is it more tricky?

This is usually a folder permissions issue. Is it possible that your My Games folder has been set with admin permissions?

Maybe.
Problem is: I wouldn't know it and how to change it, being no geek.

That would perhaps explain why I also had sometimes problems with the saves from Strategic Command WWI (seemed like I could only access saves on some external server)

If you could provide some simple counselling (it's probably just checking or unchecking some square), would be much appreciated.

Permissions are actually something of a pain to debug and change. If it is practical you could try just renaming the whole My Games folder and then running the game - it should rebuild it. If it doesn't remake the folder then you may need to add a new My Games folder yourself. If that works to allow saves it would at least give some information.

Just to check - do you have Windows Controlled Folder Access enabled? You can check this in the Virus and Threat Protection area of your Defender settings.

Thanks a lot, Man!
I disactivated it and it now works. Sure as hell, I knew it was just something like that.
