I recently bought this game from GOG and downloaded all six files. [Two called "set up" plus four patches.] So can someone please tell me which of the files I need to use - to correctly install the game ?? Help will be much appreciated as always

Thanks, Marian  I'm playing in Win7 and I have used Galaxy occasionally in the past on this machine. But I think it must have been an older version of Galaxy because more recently it has definitely upset my computer. So I avoid it now. EDIT :Well, another question already  I can't see a way to save manually and on Googling I read that the game saves automatically on a change of screen. So, after my first move to a new screen I quit and re-started - to test that theory - but it didn't work and I had to start the game over again !! How to save is now the issue

You may not have switched to the "right" screen. I hate games like that! I did some looking and you are stuck with their save system.

I also just looked at flotsam's review and he says the same autosaves on exit, but not where you left off. It will always go to the beginning of the latest scene.

Well thank you both but I must be misinterpreting something  I re-started the game and eventually moved from the original outside scene to an inside one - and then quit - to see if that worked. But it didn't. I had to start at the beginning of the outside scene again

Does the description given in that Steam link help at all?

This sounds like the stupidest save system ever.

A good reason for me to NOT buy it too.

The game is actually very nice and I like it It's just the save system that's poor. [Such a shame.] I will just have to utilise my playing time the best I can so as to ensure I play enough at one session to enable a save !!

If you didn't read that Steam post, there was this from the developer. This was considered "bad news" about the lack of a save system by several people. I subscribed to the thread, so will get notifications and will let you know! Hey guys, thanks a lot for your feedback, it's really important to us! I will make sure that the saving system get's on the list for discussion in case of updates. Cheers!

I think I've read everything there is to read now and there is definitely NO manual save system !! However, I will persevere and carry on because it is such a nice game

Thank you, Uncle Reg! Maybe check your version too... the GOG version will be fully patched.

Hi. Thank you yet again for help Uncle Reg !!  I've only just read this latest news so will check for that little circle next time I play. (It should be there because I do have the GOG version.)

Unfortunately that post is from 2 years ago already Drac. You'd think something might have been done by now. And I apparently didn't have all the facts when I made the above post  .
