@BFCElvisI appreciate the advicer you and others have given in this thread and we're still running into the same problems. Disk space is definitely not an issue and we have even tried uninstalling/reinstalling (The reinstall we put the game folder directly in the top level C:\ drive (C:\CombatMission I believe). We've also tried opening the game in admin mode as well as automatically opening in admin mode via the compatibility tab. None of this has had any visible impact on the game's behavior. He can play solo mode with 0 issues. I had him write up a detailed list of everything he did in case that might help shed some light on the issue. Any further things anyone can suggest would be appreciated! Below is what my friend typed up to describe his issue: Combat Mission Battle for Normandy Battlefront Games Windows 11 Operating System Play By Email (PBEM) Failure Described… April 28th, 2022 The PBEM feature initially worked flawlessly in the first game. The following procedure now always leads to an error message and PBEM is impossible. CM opening menu Choose: “Battle” Load New Game Choose: “It’s a New Dawn” (Example game but the following sequence now always happens no matter which game is selected.) Choose: “Fight!” Choose: “Allied force” Select Game Options Players: Choose: “2 players - Email” Skill: Choose: “Elite” Choose: “OK” New Password: Choose: ”baton” -NOW SKIPS PLAYER’S MAPBOARD SETUP PROCESS. GOES TO: - Save Email Game File Name: “It’s a New Dawn 001_ “ (underline is flashing) Choose: “OK” [ Email save failed. It’s a New Dawn001_ could not be created in the Outgoing Email directories. Try again? ] Choose: “Yes” ( Always fails again.)

Hello, I have a friendm (he is not super tech savvy so I'm here on his behalf) who bought a new computer to play "Combat Mission: Battle for Normandy" with a friend of his using the play by email feature. Everything was going fine for their first couple of games, but out of nowhere the play by email option was giving him errors "Email save failed. 'Huzzar! 001gvh" could not be created i the outgoing email directory. Try again?" Trying again did nothing.o He ran into the same problem when he was trying to create his own email game, so I don't think it had anything to do with a corrupted file from his buddy. I went through the process of uninstalling and reinstalling the game for him in case that was an issue, but the problem persisted. Any help/advice would be appreciated! I know his system is lightyears beyond what is needed to run this game, so I can't imagine that is the issue. The only thing I can even think of at this point is that there might be a Win11 compatibility issue, but that makes no sense since the game was working for a couple of weeks. Thanks for any time you might spend reading/replying to this! -Steve
