      Issues like that are usually related to windows security settings which block applications from modifying the contents of user specific folders.

      If a game likes to write save files to those locations and you have enabled ransomware protection, you’ll need to allow an exception for it:

      Go to Windows Security -> Protection History -> Protected folder access blocked (look for the game’s executable in this list) -> Actions -> Allow on Device

        Thanks for the info! I’ll try reinstalling the game in the next few days and see if it works…

          No problem. Unfortunately the prompt for an application being denied access usually only shows up when the game first creates a save point. So you might have to get just far enough until the game saves to trigger it.
