ive tried numerous times now, tried installing to different drives, but it still wont run, i get the small box logo come up then box please help ...thanks in advance..:_)
Hello @Jason Wenn Is there any reason the game could be failing to write in there, or failing to find that path that is displayed in the box? Any details about the machine that feel relevant to share? Antivirus, moved my documents to some network drive, or anything like that.
im not sure , like ive said i tried installing it on c drive then i tried installing it on both my other drives but i continue to get the same message each time, ill try disabling antivirus as aint tried that yet ...
It's got nothing to do with the location of your RR-installation, it's about the folder where RR wants to store its settings and data, like e.g. replays and stuff. This is located under the user folder. This is usually here: C:\Users\[your_username]\Documents\My Games\SimBin But in case you moved your documents folder to another drive or you altered access rights there, this might cause problems. You already wrote that you use different drives. Are they NTFS or something different (e.g. FAT32)?
Maybe the Controlled Folder Access feature in Windows prevents access to the documents folder: https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/113380-enable-disable-controlled-folder-access-windows-10-a.html
I've had this after a fresh install of Win10, no matter what I tried both AMS and rF2 refused to work, turned out Windows was blocking anything writing to MyDocs. Don't ask me the finer details of how I fixed this but it definitely had something to do with onedrive, have never in the past had anything to do with it but the second I enabled it everything worked as it should. I don't use onedrive on any other of my PC's, all Win10 and never get this issue with those but then I don't game on them either. Really have to brush up on my Windows knowledge base, believe it or not I was MCSE qualified back in 2001, no help whatsoever these days, well maybe some but........................ is my usual Windows user expression!
