I don't know. All I know is that it has worked so far with everything I downloaded from this forum. (My guess would be RAR Expander.)

I have deleted the zip file. I am remaking the scenario. I ran into a problem. I think I manipulated the .scn while it was still open in the editor. It has been wonky on my machine. I could play it no problem, but the file only shows in TotH. It does not show in file manager. By saving with the editor under a different name to my desktop, and then renaming that file in desktop, I thought that I had fixed the problem.

I will actually uninstall TotH and reinstall and make sure I can manipulate the file in File Manager before I upload it again.

Sorry,
The game is afoot!

Install the game outside of Program(X86). Windows allows you to do more with files outside of Program(X86)

Good to know! I didn't know that, but I was thinking of reinstalling to different folder anyway.

I reloaded last night after uninstalling and deleting the folder. After reinstalling, I still had the elusive soldiers of destruction.scn showing in game and the editor but not in folder manager. I have uninstalled again and am running a repair program.

I noticed last week that the editor was pointing at the maps folder when I went to save scenarios. Is that a bug?
