Hi @Punkmunster
I could load the saved you attached with no issue, do you have mods installed? It’s possible an outdated mod is causing this issue. I also recommend you tu disable Nvidia, Discord and Steam overlays. Let me know if this worked.

Hi. Felizon89. Thanks for answering. I have disabled all overlays. Still bugging. This issue never stop. I have tryed so many things. Couldn’t get it to works !

Probably a problem with ‘Reading only’ with the save directory ?
