Just to provide more information for the Glitches folks, deleterman wishes to download a saved game from here. The discussion over in Hints was getting technical, and I was also confused by his mention of Starforce copy protection, so I suggested that he post his questions in the Glitches forum.

What does the message say, deleterman? I just downloaded one of the saves with no problem.

Never attempt to open a save by double-clicking it. You have zero chance of the game opening and loading the save. Your computer will attempt to open the save with whatever the extension of the file is linked to, which usually has nothing whatever to do with the contents of the save or the game it's for. You need to put the save in the game's save folder, start the game, and load the save from there. If you don't see the save, it may not be compatible with your operating system. and i still haven't been able to down load my save game. headscratch can you tell me how i can down load the save game ? You aren't making sense. First you say you tried to open the save by double-clicking it. Then you say you haven't even managed to download it yet. Download means get it off the Internet. If you have it on your desktop or in your Downloads folder and double-clicked it, you've already downloaded it. The saves on the nicouzouf website are zip files, so I don't see how you'd get any message at all by double-clicking a link in your web browser. If you need to copy the save to your save folder, first find out where the game's saves are. Despite that certain websites claim the Nostradamus saves are in C:\Program Files (x86)\Nostradamus\Users\Profile1\ that doesn't look like a Vista/7/8/10 location to me. It looks like an XP location, and I'd look elsewhere if you don't see anything the Program Files location. Save folders are most likely in one of the subfolders of C:\Users\your-username\AppData\Local\ C:\Users\your-username\AppData\LocalLow\ or C:\Users\your-username\AppData\Roaming\ Occasionally I've seen save folders in C:\Users\your-username\Saved Games The subfolder can be named after the game, but more often is inside another subfolder that's named after the publisher or developer.

Can I assume you unzipped the file too, deleterman? The file I downloaded was a zipped file.

got the saved game i wanted on my desk top , it said -saves 20.png what is png png is a picture file -- like a jpg or bmp. It sounds like you downloaded the little picture of the floppy on the nicouzouf website instead of the saved game. The name of the save you download should be nostradamusthelastprophecy_savegames_part_020.zip and it should unzip to Save.020 readme.txt

Webroot could also be causing problems with your download too. I just downloaded a save game file, right clicked it and selected Extract All to unzip it. That's using the build-in utility in Windows. You have it in Windows 7 too.

If you have the zipped file downloaded, just locate it and right click on it. One of the options in the drop down menu should be extract all. Just click on that. Then follow Jenny's instructions to move the saved game into your game files.

Are you saying you can't find your downloaded zip file?
