Program loads fine until it trys to unZip the savegame to the "currently-playing" folder or newgame trys to create the "currently-playing" folder in the "temp" folder under Factorio AppData.

The "temp\currently-playing" read only folder appears after the creation attempt and the program closed.

The Factorio-demo worked fine.

I'd try using the portable .zip version, rather than the Steam or the non-Steam installer version.

Thank you for the response.

The installer works fine... its the creation by the game of the game files in "temp\currently-playing" folder that fails both when loading the .zip save game file or a new game population.

The portable version of the game will use a different "temp\currently-playing" folder, possibly alleviating your problem.
