"No, this is all I've got going on. My (nearly completely random-***) guess is that the security feature doesn't like that my ancient Windows 8.1 doesn't store the game files in Program Files>Shrapnel Games>The Camo Workshop>WinSPWW2>PBEM Games. It insists on storing them in Users>User>AppData>Local>VirtualStore>Program Files>Shrapnel Games>The Camo Workshop>WinSPWW2>PBEM Games. Even though the game is located in the former location. Ask Andy about that, would you please?"

That's the plan for our next battle. We just want to know what's wrong and contribute to the improvement of the game.
