Notes
- ↑ 1.0 1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4 When running this game without elevated privileges (Run as administrator option), write operations against a location below
%PROGRAMFILES%,%PROGRAMDATA%, or%WINDIR%might be redirected to%LOCALAPPDATA%\VirtualStoreon Windows Vista and later (more details). - ↑ 2.0 2.1 Notes regarding Steam Play (Linux) data:
- File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data.
- Use Wine's registry editor to access any Windows registry paths.
- The app ID (8790) may differ in some cases.
- Treat backslashes as forward slashes.
- See the glossary page for details on Windows data paths.

- This issue is caused by a mismatch of a DWM compatibility shim between the time the config is first saved (with the shim), and when it's read by the game (without the shim). By reconfiguring the game again, configs will be re-saved from a configurator running without that compatibility shim.
