Ok I tinkered with files in the very latest version of the game on a Windows 7 system. It took me awhile to figure it all out but here is what finally ended up working for me.
1) In Games/Civil War II/CW2/Events I found the file (1861 April Campaign) By doing a replace all FixType = 999 to Fixtype = 1 all fixed units which appear by script will be fixed for 1 turn. I choose 1 turn rather than none. Should you choose no turns make FixType = 999 to Fixtype = 0.
2) Next in the same file you must search for FixType = and one at a time you will find units fixed for different periods of time than permanent, such as units in California or other places. They normally have turn holds on them from 3 to 5 turns, but some have long holds. You must change all of these one at a time such as FixType = 3 to FixType = 1, FixType = 60 to FixType = 1 and so on. Again use 0 instead of 1 if you want them unfixed from start.
3) Now in folder Games/Civil War II/CW2/Scripts you must do the same as step 2 with the files (Script) and (ScriptApril61).
4) Now in folder Games/Civil War II/CW2/Scens find the file (1861 April Campaign). In this one you do a replace all for every 999 to 1. This is the Garrison Troops, Garrison Artillery and Ships in California that start fixed. Again if you desire to have them unfixed at once use 0 instead of 1. Note this file has lots of 999 separated by /999/999/999/ as well as those following the FixType =, you must change every one. I just did a complete file replace command of replace 999 with 1. Again if you desire to have them unfixed at once use 0 instead of 1.
EDIT: Had to go back and edit more files in Games/Civil War II/CW2/Events such as (Balances, USA Leaders, CSA Leaders, Various Events, USA Events and CSA Events). I hope that's all of them but you may want to edit others as I might if things continue to come up locked.
Enjoy!
