    @bludshawty  Try pausing OneDrive syncing before you play.  Right-click the cloud icon in the lower-right corner of the screen to see the option.

    If that doesn't help, please leave syncing paused, and test a new save.  Let me know whether it has the same issues as your main saves.

    The icons in your screenshot show OneDrive in the process of syncing some files and folders (blue arrows) and having already synced others (green check mark).  When it can't sync a file or folder, it shows a red X.  While the fact that OneDrive is syncing content isn't necessarily damaging by itself, it can cause all sorts of complications.  So if you'd like to get OneDrive out of the picture, or at least keep it from syncing Documents, let me know.

    so i tried pausing my OneDrive, but all the files that were syncing were still continuing to sync, but i could play the game, i'm not sure if it was because of what you said or because i left it for a day, but i was able to play, also i would like to thank you because you made me realize that my OneDrive was full lol.

    also when i went onto the game after pausing my OneDrive, more files started syncing?? like the problem i had before but with more files.
