Commandos 1 - No saving/loading or making profile -Steam Version

[Dridje]

I bought both the games about a week ago and when I installed them I find out the save and load options are greyed out, as well as the option to make a new profile.

I looked around on the steam forums for a solution but everything that was suggested didn't work for me. I spent about 5 hours (here and there) trying to resolve this issue but no success and so tried to get a refund with the reason the game will be impossible to beat without saving. Since I'm posting here you can guess what response they gave me.
Since it is on steam I can't do anything to make the game run without using it.

I've seen a few threads regarding the same issue but they have no good answers in them.

I'm running Windows XP Home Edition Service Pack 3 and I don't know if any other information is needed so I'll wait for some responses first.

I hope somebody can help me here as I'd like to play the games again for nostalgia value.

TL;DR:
-No save/load game or create profile.
-Don't know what to do.
-Can't get a refund from Steam.
-All help appreciated.

Okay I manage to fix it and I made a thread on Steampowered that shows how I did it.
