Please download the latest patch v12.0.01 from https://www.capitalism2.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=10546

This version will display more detailed information about the error, which happens when the game is unable to retrieve your user Documents folder path from the Windows system. Please capture a screenshot of the new error message and post it here. I will then forward it to the development team to help them track down the issue.

Hello,

The error occurred because Windows does not allow the game to access the user folder. Capitalism Lab stores user data files to <user folder>/My Games/Capitalism Lab

Please try the following solutions:

Solution 1) Turn off the Controlled Folder Access on Windows.
For detailed instructions, please see:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-hk/hel ... s-security

Change the setting from On to Off.

Solution 2) Are you using any anti-virus software or Windows Defender that runs in background? There is a chance that they may block the game from writing files to your harddisk. If so, please add Capitalism Lab to Windows Defender or your anti-virus software as one of its approved app.

For example, if you are using Avast, you can add Capitalism Lab’s EXE file “CapMain.exe” into Avast’s exception list to prevent it from blocking the game.

For instructions about how to add an approved app to Windows Defender, please see:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-hk/hel ... s-security


Solution 3) Run this program as an Administrator. To do so, right click on the Capitalism Lab program icon. Windows will display a popup window. From there, choose “Run as administrator”.

Solution 4) Are you using OneDrive? If so, please try disabling it and see if it makes any difference.

Several new display modes have been added, including 1280×800, 1470×956, 1512×982, 1680×1050, 1720×800, and 2560×1080. With these additions, the game now supports the vast majority of modern monitor resolutions.
Hi

Would love to see more "Windowed Mode" options as well.
Missing the 2560 x 1440 from v11.
Or perhaps a user configurable setting if that is possible.

Thanks

HI,
it looks like I can only research Internet techs with RD
there are no specialist for other tech categories like telecom 2g telecommunications?

I play v12.0.12 beta with real mod 15.1 but it s the same without any mod...

1) What other resolutions of WIndowed mode would you like to see?

2) "perhaps a user configurable setting if that is possible." -> I have forwarded your suggestion to the dev team.

3) "Missing the 2560 x 1440 from v11." -> the dev team told me that it is available in V12. To find out the reason why it is not available to you, please press ALT-D while you are in the change resolution menu and it will show additional information, as shown in the screenshot below. Please capture the screenshot and post it here so that I can forward it to the dev team for further investigation.
