DW problem- No missions, no locations, no saved games

My DW installation worked fine until now. However, suddenly I am unable to select location in Quickmission, no saved files in Mission and Campaign. Seems to hard for me to figure out what could be the problem. Do not want re install unless it would end up to be necessary.

I have never heard of this issue before. Did you have any problems with the sim the last time it closed down? It sounds like a file corruption issue, which would require a re-install. Did you make any mod changes?

What OS do you have?

If you search your harddrive, do you find any .mss files? These are the savegames. (alteast of a single mission)

That cured the problem. My entire Scenario folder was moved accidentally to Manual folder. Must been me

Thanks.

I fear so. It's so easy to accidentally left-click and hold a folder and drop it into a folder the next one above or below.
