Hi guys

First post, I think, first for ages anyway!

My H&D2 suddenly started refusing to load, giving a Virus message. I convinced myself it was a permissions problem and after copying the playername folder from the PlayerProfiles directory merrily uninstalled and reinstalled, and then copied the player folder back in.

Now I seem to have lost all my progress and can't get it back! Help!

Is that it, or is there anyway of retrieving my lost progress?

Failing that, can anyone supply a savegame that gets upto C5M1 - that's the one where I got stuck!

Thanks all.

Jeff

Virus message?

Did you make sure you put your profile folder back in the PlayerProfiles folder?

Yep, copying the user folder back into the PlayerProfile directory was the first thing I tried, but it didn't see the user or any savegames when I started the reinstalled H&D2, so iwas wondering if there are any other places that 'user' info is stored?

Thanks

Jeff

What kind of virus message?

No, that is the only place... did you click on change/create profile and then select the backup?

Hi there

Can't remember the message now - but after I reinstalled it made no difference, so I ditched AVG and used MSE instead then it worked fine!

I deleted the player profiles in game this time, recopied my old saved profile over, since there were none this time I had to select change profile and select my 'old one' - hey presto, they're back.... October 2011, that's how long that's had me stuck - thanks!

Yeah, that is what happens... the game does not automatically recognize and select a profile unless it is the last used profile. If you delete your last used profile, the game will start like that, and be blank at the menu.
