For everyone having issues with the game launching or saving, just download the latest Qqsp player version and load in the game manually, you can then save wherever you like as many times as you like and use the quick save (F5) and quick load (F9) options.
I can't even start the game MFB.exe without it crashing almost immediately.
Here you have a link to the latest version (1.9) in this
post. Download your version (32bit or 64bit), execute Qqsp.exe and open the game file, just go into the game folder where you extracted it and under
assets\standalone_content open the file
