Unable to see save files in the SAVE folder

Post by AtParmentier »

Hello,
My save files in the SAVE folder are suddenly not visible anymore, only the txt files are visible.
I can still load the files ingame, but I can't see them anymore in their folder. I can see hidden files anywhere else, but here I only get the txt files. Can anyone help me with this?

Greetings.

Never had this bug.

Are you sure you look in the SAVE folder, and not in the SAVE > archive folder?

If you can still load then yjey exist. I suspect that somehow you have turn filtering on of some sort.

I had same thing. I could load and save the game, but I can't see the saved files in explorer.
Try to run game as administrator. Worked for me.

Go to that folder and check the Windows properties. Check the "Display hidden files" box. Sometimes when you move files around you might accidentally have set those files as hidden files so they do not display.
