Did you change from playing AI to playing in a different format?
A bit of detail would help, especially if you used to find multiple saves.
It used to be if I went to "Load Game" from the start menu screen there would be a bunch of saves to choose from, now there is only two. One is the title of the scenario I chose, the other is the save game that I named myself. When I save the game it is usually by clicking the save button from the game interface, but I also tried going to the start menu and clicking "save" from there. The file I named myself is from when I first started the scenario, once the game is started it doesn't appear that you can name save games after that.
I do see a bunch of files in the save folder where the game is installed, but I don't know how to use them without the game running, windows does not recognize those files if I double click them.
I also noticed recently that after I close the game there are 20 or so saved game files in the recycle bin, some are TRN files and others ORD. I can see that some of them are from saved games that I named myself. However if I restore those files they don't show up in the saved games list, I still only have to load options, the scenario start and the saved game I named myself.
I don't know why those files end up in the recycle bin, I thought maybe I had checked an option to automatically delete old saves, but I see no such option in the options menu. Sorry this all sounds so confusing, but I am pretty much befuddled at this point !
