How can I change savegame directory

[LavaBall]

My directory of the savegames is C:\Documents and Settings\Jean Pierre Dalli.LAVABALL-BD450F\My Documents\GTA San Andreas User Files

 

I can't change that and this page says it is wrong for the computer to do so

So I need to change the directory GTASA Saves games and other settings to C:/GTA Stuff

 

I hope it's possible anyhow even if I have to hack registry's or whatever

 

Thanks in advance

I don't think that's possible. You'll just have to live with it.

The User Files folder isn't your problem, it's your User account name that is at fault --> Jean Pierre Dalli.LAVABALL-BD450F

 

Your User name has a period (.) in it and it has been reported that user account names with a period corrupt savefiles and don't allow you to save your game. Just make a new Windows User account which doesn't have a period (.) in it.

Do I have to re-install windows?

Is there another way of doing it?

Simply go to Control Panel > User Accounts and create a new user. No need to reinstall Windows.

You can just re-name your old account, can't you?
