Everytime I save a file on my PC with XP in Gmax or RenX, When I try to open it again I get an error. And when I try to move it or delete it in windows exploror I get errors too. What gives.

Yes, I reinstalled them a few times.

I belive this is to do with the new patch they brought out to stop that new worm.

I just went out and got Windows Longhorn now mine works fine.

You might have to wait for Discreet to fix this with a new patch.

Goto control panel and click add/remove programs. Find the item called "The renegade mod tools" then click add/remove. Select the repair installation and it should fix any broken things you have. You won't loose any work or anything but it will load the default setting for RenX and replace any corrupted files. You may need the "RenegadeToolsInstaller2.exe" file to do the repair installation. If you do get it from the Westwood FTP.

Temporary Instructions for Windows Update Hotfix 823980 Configurations

If the Windows Update Hotfix 823980 has already been installed under any Windows operating system, it is suggested that customers uninstall the Hotfix to create usable .gmax file content. Uninstalling Hotfix 823980 will allow existing or recently saved/corrupted files to be read by gmax without errors.

You can verify that the Hotfix is installed, and uninstall it, through the Control Panel >> Add/Remove Programs, then scroll to find the Windows Update referencing 823980. If it is installed, highlight the reference, and click remove to uninstall the fix

Gen Havoc's method doesn't work for me, since the problem also occurs in regular gmax as well--not just RenX.

Blasted. I would think discreet would have come up with a better workaround and/or patch by now.
