Everytime I try to create a new game or load an existing game, this error pops up. I have completely deleted and reinstalled the game, deleted all my save files etc etc and it still pops up. One more thing I notice is that the folder name is not correct, its searching for a user folder with my user name on it but the only user folder that exists is numbers rather than my user name. How do I fix it, as it is very troublesome to play the game like this.

Relates to the need for us to be able to set the drive and directory the game uses.
Possibly the directory or drive this user wants to use is set to Admin only or at least not to the "user" they are logged in as. This would be a windows security issue that could be handled with allowing the user to use a directory they have permissions to use.

Still running into this one myself, but it grabs your current username instead of the path to your userdirectory... which is baffling as every other bit of software I've seen doesn't make that mistake.
(In windows, your userdirectory is named after what you first called your account - and doesn't change with your current username / displayname)

Really need to let user choose the game save directory.
I very much suspect that it has to do with user permissions which can vary from user to user.

Bump - I get this on 1.00.41 and .42. It tries to go to C:\Users\me , but then to D:\Gaming\RTW3\\Save where I actually have everything.
Edit: ltsarcasm yes you are right, I misread it at first. RTW3 is trying to go C:\Users\Device name......which is very bizarre and something I have never seen in any other program. It should at least be trying to go C:\Users\*my user profile*\etc...
Pic attached now of the exact message. It's using the device name, in my case: "LAPTOP2"

Thanks blarglol - IIRC you said it did not show this behavior on your machine before the 0.41 update, is that correct?
