I think this can be something to do either with fact that game is using non-unicode file system access or some local access restrictions.

The unicode trail sounds good to me... I can assure you that the game folder is set for full access

I've verified that the access rights are the same for Save as the subfolders.

What about Windows UAC? Have you tried to disable it?

Just tried, didn't make any difference I'm afraid.

Can you see the saves in the main save directory?
If so a temporary method could be to copy the save to there to continue playing.

Also try to create the sub-directory without spaces (or use _ instead) and see if that helps

Yes a couple if us have tried copying to Save and that works.

No spaces makes no difference at least for me, I tried previously with Westwall.

Other workaround:
Start the previously used scenario again, make sure the suggested save folder gets the same name you previously used and immediately resign the game. Try to load a saved game, game may then load saves from the last used folder.

Looks like we found the issue. It seems game doesn't recognize folders with non default attributes (ex. compressed, encrypted, restricted for indexing or archive). It will be fixed in coming patch.

Now you can try to set save folder attribute to the "default" values:

Indeed, that did the trick! I usually disable indexing for most folders.

Enabling indexing on the save directory fixed it for me. Thanks very much.
