    • Make sure Origin or/and Steam are closed.
    • Go to your "Documents\BioWare\Mass Effect Legendary Edition\Save" folder.
    • Move the Mass Effect 2 Save folder to your Desktop,
    • Test.

    Holy Crap! That worked thank you so much, does that mean my save is corrupted and I have to start over or is there some way to retrieve it? I think I'm just going to start again anyway.

      One of the saves is corrupted, most likely the one you tried to load.

      The only way to find out if other saves are ok is by trial and error.

      You're welcome! Have fun gaming.

      as also able to repeat the issue. I was trying to add my save back and the Gamer Profile File is the one causing the crashes.
