FYI you should never run this or any of our games as Admin.

I don't see why that would have affected the Ironman save though. What exactly happens now?

When I start the game everything runs normal exapt I cannot find my savegame anywhere ingame.

Local saves are held in Documents/Paradox Interactive/EU4/save games/ . Cloud saves are visible here:

store.steampowered.com

Is the missing game file visible in either place?

 

[Nconstruct]

Yes it is visible in Documents/Paradox Interactive/EU4/save games/

It it is there but not shown in the Load Games menu, is that right? What if you tick the Show Incompatible Saves box there?

Basically there is nothing about running the eu4.exe file as Admin that should have this effect - if that save is broken, it's from some other cause IMO.

Yes I allready tryid that but it isnt there

Did you try to load it from the "Saved Games" list in the single player menu(not from the load game menu in a running game)? I tried the Aragon.eu4 which you attached to the first post and I can see it there and load it as long as I activate the checkbox for incompatible saves(it shows as incompatible for me, because I don't have the GUI mods which you have).

If the Aragon.eu4 is the one which you are trying to load, you could try to download it again and put it into the save games folder under a different file name.
