When using MSTS under my sons user name which has restricitions (he is 4 years old) I get the following error messages when he loads a Train. This does not happen if you select the introductory train ride, or if he plays under my account which is a administrator.messages as it begins to load under his user name, not admin account:Failed to save service
Error continue?Failed to save explorer player service
Error continue?failed to save activity file: explorer.act
Error continue?failed to save explorer activity
Error continue?I have updated to the latest version of msts.
I changed the compatability mode to win 98 but same effect under is user name.
I have disabled Norton Internet Security thinking that was blocking something.Any ideas or advice? Thanks all

This has to do with the registry, you probably installed MSTS under your own user name ?
If your sun is the only one who plays this Game, it should be installed under his user-name, maybe if you have space enough you could install it twice, or else; give him full-access to MSTS in properties of Launcher (in the MSTS folder).edit: sun should ofcourse read Son, finger tripped over the i Greets Henk.

It runs fine if I select the Introductory train, but when I do this:Select "Drive A Train"
Select Hisatsu line "explore route" activity
Select StartIs when I start getting that series of messages beginning with Failed to save serviceATCT
