DeMignon: Btw, there's a typo in your paths ;-) You obviously manually created this:
\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\runic games\torchlight \Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\runic games\torchlight\saves \Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\runic games\torchlight\mods My Torchlight games aren't saving properly. I am a Windows 7 user, and the game already automatically created the folders above, but my save games don't match up. I will explain with examples below.
E.g. 1.
First installation, first character:
I played to level 8 and then quit for the evening. However, when I tried to use the "Continue" option the next day, it kept going to the "New Character" screen. After checking in the "Load Character" screen, I realised that my character no longer existed!
E.g. 2.
First installation, second character:
Sometime during gameplay, the "Alt" key's function was reversed. I.e. Instead of item names showing when I pressed the "Alt" key, they were permanently showing, and only disappeared while I was holding the "Alt" key. So I reinstalled.
E.g. 3.
Second installation, third character:
The "Alt" key issue resolved itself after reinstalling. I played a new character for a while and then quit the game from the menu. The next day, I used the "Continue" option, only to be back with a
previous character, right after entering the mine for the first time (i.e. no new gear, about 1200 XP), and now the "Alt" key problem had returned.

Something is very wrong here, but I have no clue where to look. Can anyone help?
