FALLOUT 4 WONT LET ME SAVE THE GAME!

Post » Fri Nov 27, 2015 7:36 am

I spent at least an hour getting into this game and I needed a break, so I saved and quit, I went back on earlier and the load game option was blacked out :C

ANY FIX?

I have also been having this issue. I am not sure if it is related but after upgrading to windows 10 a few months ago my older fallout games stopped saving as well. I read somewhere that it might be due to having the game installed on a different drive than the one the OS is on cause that seems to be where the saves are stored. Why this would make a difference I don't know. In any case I tried to fix it but nothing worked so I gave up and patiently waited for Fallout 4. It seems my issues may have followed me. I really don't want to go through a new OS install in order to play one game. Please help.

Same exact issue, ive got Windows 10 as well, but i havent encountered the problem before. I hope Besthesda gets on it fast so i can start playing the game i spent $60 for.

Windows 10 made my other Bethesda games unsaveable as well. This is a serious matter Bethesda needs to fix NOW!

The solution is:

Exit Steam.

Right click on Steam and choose ''run as administrator''.

To start the game, right click on the icon on your desktop and choose ''run as administrator'' as well.

If that alone doesn't work, follow the instructions here: http://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/3841-take-ownership-add-context-menu-windows-10-a.html

Let me know if it worked for you :)
