Save files paths/Loading old save files on Windows 10

[Zorakknight]

I'm having problems loading save files from 2 weeks ago. I got the files here with me and it seems they are not corrupted, as i have both the .sol files as the save standalone. CoC is refusing to load the save standalone and both firefox and chrome do not find the save files, even if they are in their right folders. Both firefox and Chorme did not have their cookies erased, nor was the savefiles or the program itself put on isolation by the anti-virus. Help pls

It isn't Windows 10 that's causing the problem, as far as I can tell. It seems that an update to the Flash Player has changed the save location from ...\localhost to ...\ #localWithNet.

This affects CoC, TiTS, and both the CoC and TiTS save editor. You can copy your save files from one folder to the other, and you will be able to load them again.

I've only ever saved to file and kept them in the same directory as the downloaded swf
Like this:
(X:/.../CoC/game.swf)
(X:/.../CoC/save_1) <--- no file extension, naturally

Now the game won't load any of my old saves - does that mean I need to convert them to sol?

Has this issue been resolved?

No, and I'm not sure how it CAN be resolved. This issue is the result of an update to Adobe Flash nearly 8 months ago, not a problem with CoC. The default Save/Load location USED TO BE ...\localhost, but after the Flash update, it is now ...\#LocalWithNet. It's probably better to write a tiny tool that migrates all the save files over to \#LocalWithNet than to try to override the Save/Load behavior.
