Two folders out and putting one back results in the game running fine. As soon as I put even the files out of that other folder back in it goes right back to being a P.I.T.A. Next thing I am going to try is just putting everything in the main folder without subfolders at all.

I had wondered about some sort of hidden file limit somewhere. I don't think so since the two accounts with two completely different downloads configurations don't have anywhere near the same number of files and on the main (pleasantries) account I even tried deleting everything I could do without (which was a painful process of cringing and being certain at some point I would need what I was deleting) and it still does the same thing.

I will work it out eventually I am sure, just going to frustrate me no end in the meantime.
