funguner 0 Report post Posted June 16, 2019 (edited) When playing the game I keep getting tabbed out to an alert about it not being able to save files or something due to it being write protected. It is on an external hard drive. I've gone into the settings and allowed both steam and warthunder access to write in the files but it didn't fix it. any advice? Edited June 16, 2019 by funguner I got the alert. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyingDoctor 812 Report post Posted June 16, 2019 It says it MAY be write protected... It's more likely the drive is actually failing, or that it's having issues with the connector. I've always told people who run games off USB that it's unwise, and this would be one of those situations. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlyingDoctor 812 Report post Posted June 16, 2019 If you're on PC, you could get another drive. If you're on a laptop, you need to get a bigger one. Either way, look into an SSD if you haven't got one already Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
