    Issues like that are usually related to windows security settings which block applications from modifying the contents of user specific folders.

    If a game likes to write save files to those locations and you have enabled ransomware protection, you’ll need to allow an exception for it:

    Go to Windows Security -> Protection History -> Protected folder access blocked (look for the game’s executable in this list) -> Actions -> Allow on Device

      Thanks for the info! I’ll try reinstalling the game in the next few days and see if it works…
