HELP!!

slicer15 · 02-26-2003, 11:13 AM

I have a problem that when i try to save the game says the folder is corrupted. i have uninstalled the game twice and the same problem still occurs. Please help! i cannot save!

"CreateFile('C:\Program Files\Bethesda Softworks\Morrowind\Saves\quiksave.ess') in CreateTES failed with error:
The file or directory is corrupted and unreadable."

That's the message by the way. or this:
"Save restarted before previous Save was finished."

Any suggestions? Please?

Sounds worrying... have you checked that the directory is still there? Is it readable and writable by other applications?
Also, try to save on another slot, not on quiksave. Maybe it's just that file that got corrupted and cannot be overwritten.

Most games when you uninstall usually will leave save games. So you're going to have to uninstall, then manually delete the remnants of the Morrowind directory. Then reinstall.
