I purchased this on Steam. Twice playing for the first time today as Confederacy got this "FAILED (Store) Permission denied" message and then CTD. Any ideas?

Sorry to hear this, and it might be worth contacting Matrix support to see if they have an idea on the issue:

Thanks Bill, I will try that, but I have just found this old thread so I will follow this advice first . . .

Hi Stockwellpete,

That thread will be helpful, but it could also be your Anti Virus software getting in the way as some are set to protect the Documents folder where game files are stored, such as your saves and the various settings files.

It would explain the permission denied error, potentially, as well.

Hope this helps,
Hubert
