Schrullenhaft Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 You running into a feature of UAC (User Account Control) which is preventing writes to the '\Program Files' directory that TOW is install in. To avoid UAC you can either "turn it off" or you can run the game as an administrator. To do this right-click on the shortcut you launch the game with and select "Run as administrator" from the popup menu. If you don't want to do this each time you can modify the shortcut to run as an administrator all the time. To do this right-click on the shortcut and go to 'Properties' at the bottom of the popup menu. Go to the 'Compatibility' tab and go to the bottom section labeled 'Privilege Level'. Checkmark the box next to the text that says "Run this program as an administrator". Click 'Apply' and 'OK'. You should now be able to create the profile and have it save.
