Schlaumayr: Now for the second time in a week, my savegames were erased and I lost almost all progress. It's a shame, because I totally loved the game.

Same problem here. Tried playing Carrion tonight, but there were no more game saves in the load menu! All disappeared! But I managed do to some digging around and found a possible solution...
I'm running Windows 7. Hopefully this will work on Windows 10 too. Make sure your Windows 7 is displaying hidden system files or you won't be able to see the AppData folder.
1. I located Carrion's game saves in the following directory:
C:\Users\%UserName%\AppData\LocalLow\Phobia\Carrion\saves
(on my computer %UserName% = User)
2. I selected all the files in that Saves folder (backup_0.crn, checkpoint_0.crn, save_0.crn, etc.) and COPIED them.
3. Inside the Carrion folder, I noticed a folder called "_gog_1915xxxxxxxxxxxxx". I opened it and stumbled upon yet another folder called Saves. And it's in this folder that I PASTED the files I had copied in step #2.
When I relaunched Carrion, all of my old game saves and checkpoints appeared in the game's menu again! Yay! :)
Hope this works for you too!
