wait.... I actually have this file2.rpgsave but when I play the game there's no continue button wth
Do you have any kind of write protection on in the folder? I actually ran into that problem in the past.
Inside your save folder next to your file2.rpgsave, is there also a config and a global file? Those are needed in order to recognize your save file as well.
File1 is your autosave btw (you may not have that turned on, or be blocked due to write protection), File2 is the File1 slot inside the game.
What happens if you start a new game, and save a game? Before you do that, rename your file2 to something like file20.
(In order not to over write it.)
If that doesn't create a global, config and a save, you have an issue on how that is working, likely write protection.
After you have done that, in explorer. Delete the new file2. Rename the file20 back to file2, should be able to continue from there.
