    No, all saves are in this folder and If the profile would be corrupted the other saves also wouldn't work.

    Disable "Cloud save" until you got the game running.

    Maybe it is easer if you try it the other way around. Move all saver games out of the character folder and test.

    If the game starts move the save games one by one or in small groups if you have many back into the character folder > test ( you need to restart the game very time.)

Well, it could be that you get a permissions isuue. (The game can't save to the designated folder.)

But if I get you right that is working now, so I still assume that the save file is coruppted.

You can try "Gibbed's ME2 save editior"  to modify a save game for import. (only the save games after you are finished a game are "seen" by ME3. But you can modefy a existin save befor the game is finished as a end game save.)

There are plenty of guides for Gibbed on the internet, just google for them.

I guess one of the save files was corrupted indeed. I did not try them all since the latest ones worked fine. But still I was worried about my accomplishments since they do not show in my profile. I finished Mass effect twice and does not show that I did when I started ME3. My lvl was also 30 in the saved game and did not show that. This mod is very interesting but does not affect the profile. I also googled the issue and it seems the only way to solve profile achievement issues is by downloading another profile along with another saved game or doing it the hard way. They also advice to backup the profile since it is saved in a different location and once it gets corrupted everything is lost.

Now I started a new replay from scratch. Importing ME1 character.  Trying to accomplish again all the achievements the right way, I got half of them so far and I am lvl 12. The only achievement that is not improving is the Reach Level 30 achievement which shows 0/30 which I think it is a glitch and will show once I reach lvl 30. 

I do believe your latest Suggestion in emptying the Save folder and adding the saves one by one was a good solution to resume the game. so I will call it as solved and will close the Post.

I would like to thank you a lot for your help and mainly for your time, I wish EA official Support had 10% of your will and dedication.

Great Work!
