Did you renumber the file to be the last numbered file in the folder?

yes, i did. i have some marked as autosaves , but most are "slot_6 File" ,for example. should i have opened the save ?

thanks in advance.

No, never try to open a save file outside of the game itself, it won't work.

I can't recall if the game has limited save slots. If your current last save slot is slot_6, did you renumber the save sent to you as slot_7?

Perhaps remove your current slot_6 to a safe place, renumber your new file to that number, and replace. See if that works.

ok - will try that, thank you.

Crossing fingers that works for you.
