Error opening my Saves

Post by Hogweed »

Hi team!

Been loving this game since not long it was released! I have a weird error. I have been playing the last few months, and had added a number of mods. I stopped playing for a week or so, then i came back to play, and when I went to load a save, a box pops up that reads:

create_directories
"C:/***local directory***/Factorio_0.1534/temp/currently-playing" failed: operation not permitted.

from what I have read, it seems you think this could be a space issue, or folder rights issue, but everything seems fine, and I have not changed anything, so i cant image what happened. If you have any insight - I would greatly appreciate it.

Edit: - it happens with all the other files as well, so maybe it is a location issue.. Double checking. Also - the temp folder is locked, cant open it or do anything.

Hi, reboot your computer and then try to delete the temp folder.
