Windows 10: Save and Save As not working after recent update

I logged in to Windows this morning, and everything seems to have changed overnight. That's not a problem, except that now Save and Save As are not working properly for all of my apps. I've tried several times to save files, and I get a couple of different errors:

- Check the filename, file not found (yet, I'm in the file, it is there, and I'm working in it, yet it won't save or save as)

- I don't have permission to save to a location (yet, I'm the administrator on the computer and should have access to save anywhere -- including the folder where the file is already open!)

- Project could not be saved. Access to the path is denied (yet, again, I'm already in a file that is open to that path that I was able to save to as late as last Friday -- today is Monday).


This is happening on all files -- Office and outside apps (the one that gave me that last error was Articulate Storyline 360). I can't seem to Save As for Office files, and I can't seem to Save any other type of files. And yet, when I saved in my root folder (my user folder is named "krist"), I was able to save... but only to that root folder and to no other sub-folders that lived within that folder.

Recent (Save Files) - Change Default Settings to OneDrive


Hello -
Thanks for the return. Before I undertake changing the Registry, I have a question.
The steps in my Registry, for my version of Windows 10, were a bit different, but I think I eventually got to the right spot.
The last step is to change the number of places you want to list in Recent Places. In my case, the default Max Display listed 50 as the number. So, if I were to change that number, how do I know the Save As page will be one of those places? Or, a similar question, will this registry change delete the tab Recent from my Save As page? This is what I would like to happen.
When I received my computer in Nov. 2016, the Recent tab was not listed in the Save As page. Something caused it to be added over time. Which brings me to this second question. Would there be any benefit in deleting the changed registry listing and reverting back to the default listing? See attachment.

fallout 3 games saves not working

hey, i just registered to confirm something. it seems i dont have a Fallout3.exe.cat *Eek! i'm using patch 1.6 so i dont know if that makes a difference.

i should point out though that im trying to load my saves from when i had no patches installed. so at this point in time i have old saves in the documents\mygames\fallout3\saves\username...

when i start fallout3 the continue and load options are blocked yet the saves are in the save folder. it seems i also cant sign in to live.

any help would be very appreciated as i was close to 100% completion but now have to start again *Frown

FIXED!

thats rather strange, i put the new saves back into the save folder but this time put one of the old save alongside the new ones. this time i was able to sign in and load a save including the old one! i loaded it and then saved the game. although when it saved it contiued from the new save list.
example:

old save list went from 01 to 88, the new save list which was started after the game was patched went from 01 to 11. i moved 88 into the save folder, loaded it and save the game and instead of being save 89 it actually saved as 12.

it still doesnt make sense that the old saves wouldn't just load though. oh well, hope this helps someone. also now i can play the dlc's continuing with lvl 20 *Stick Out Tongue
