    Default Cannot save changes to Preference Document

    I have tried to change my preferences to say UNLIMITED_MEN_ON_BATTLEFIELD_TRUE, but any time I go to save the changes, it says

    "Cannot create the C:\Program Files\Activision\Rome-Total War\bi\preferences\preferences.txt.file
    Please make sure the path and file name are correct."

    How can I fix this?

    Save it somewhere else and then copy the new preferences.txt over the old one in preferences folder.

    If you're using Windows Vista turn off the User Account Control (UAC).
