[FIXED]Will not save/restore. (Category: Save/Load)
« on: December 15, 2011, 06:56:28 PM »
I have played episodes 1-3 and all saved/restored.  Episode 4 just doesn't.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled as 'administrator' as suggested and loaded into c:\TSL...still notta.  Hmmmm...this is trickier than the game :)

What happens when you try to save the game?  Does it crash or does it just seem like it saved but you can't actually see the games later to restore them?  What version of Windows are you using?

Had same problem as TO. I originally let TSL decide the location for the installation which is a MS windows folder.
I just tried the solution suggested in a sticky thread further up and it worked! Thanks!
The problem really appears to be the windows directory. I re-installed TSL on another partition and the game saves just fine.

On my PC the tsl.exe is in a hidden folder that I had to make visible to get to tick 'administrator'.
The path was C:\program data\microsoft\windows\start menu\programs\phoenix online.

During the problem, the games did not save at all - I searched hi and lo.
I'm on win7 64bit version.

That's probably just the Start Menu shortcut. The actual executable should be in the folder where you installed the game.
