Saving failed because some files are not accessible...

Need More Information

I was suddenly unable to save the game. I was not able to save a copy either. No files or folders have been tampered with nor even visited on my part. This is during a playthrough that just an hour earlier was able to save without any issues. See attached screenshot.


Edit: After quitting the game completely, I could re-enter the last save, and I tried to save again, and it worked.


From what I could find through a quick google session, the game is somehow loosing Windows access to the appdata/roaming write-rights after a while.

I just came across the same issue/bug


I tired another save file name, same bug after playing for a few hours.


The auto save (last one) I loaded without exiting game or restart, loaded fine. Same issue with this method.


Exit, restarted game, Save game deleted or gone


Previous Save is working

Hello moorbloom,


Does this issue still occurs for you? Have you tried launching Steam as an Administrator? Additionally, could you please provide your Game logs?

You can find them here:

  • C:\Users\(your username)\AppData\Roaming\SpaceEngineers2\Temp\Logs

They will look like this:

Launching Steam as Administrator?! Be serious!

There are no logs because it can't even write the logs to the %APPDATA% directory. Same reason it can't write the save file to the same directory.

Hello Dude,


Are you experiencing the same issue as in the original post? Could you please clarify what does the provided image shows as this is not the file structure of SE2 Save Files. Are you able to launch the Game and create a save file?


Kind Regards,
