Product: NFS: Unbound
Platform: PC (Epic)
Summarize your bug I purchased and downloaded Need for Speed Unbound from Epic, but when I opened it, I encountered error code 6. (for more info, I used to have a old HD that had the game save on, it died, so now use a new HD, and I don't know if the game wants to try find the save that was on my old HD or something)
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Just launch, happens when game tries to read save
What happens when the bug occurs? On the main splash screen, I don't get past that, can't even skip the error
What do you expect to see? The game saves fixed. Possibly add a option in settings to manually create a save, that would solve the issue.

Error code 6 FIX for PC:
I found what was causing this error for me after 6months of being unable to play Unbound. AND, hopefully I can help a bunch of you out!!
So last year, my Hard drive died and on it was the default location for My Documents folder. Now because Unbound saves to My Documents, and my PC still had the default location as my old HDD, the game couldn't access it and the save failed.
Unknown to me, I had the same issue with bunch of other games, but unlike Unbound, those games showed a 'cant save error' but followed it up, by asking me where I would like to save my game instead, so I never had issues. (take a lesson there EA, let us choose where we want to save our games)
So I found a BAT file that resets the location of your Documents folder to default, and thereafter, Unbound could save, and I could actually play the game (finallllly!!!)
Here's the BAT file download link - https://www.tenforums.com/attachments/tutorials/38707d1442867980-users-personal-folders-restore-default-location-windows-10-a-restore_documents_default_location.bat
AND heres the website I got the info from for your peace of mind - https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/23504-restore-default-location-personal-folders-windows-10-a.html
Just open that link, download the file, run it (don't worry, it's safe) and thereafter you should be able to get rid of this error for good (cheers!!)
Hope this helps!!! <3
