Step 2. Create association of Age of Empires III with AGE3SAV files
If, despite the installed application, the AGE3SAV file does not start in the Age of Empires III application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated.

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the AGE3SAV file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our AGE3SAV file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover AGE3SAV files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the AGE3SAV files changes over time. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair AGE3SAV file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Microsoft Studios
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted AGE3SAV files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move AGE3SAV to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the AGE3SAV file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
