Folder writing problem with a PC game (witcher 3)

[MichaelMBa]

Lately I tried to create a savegame in the game Witcher 3 and it didn't work. I read that windows security folder access protection could prevend a game (i.e. Witcher 3) from saving to certain folders. Since I'm using Kaspersky Total Security the options in Windows were not available.

I tried to deactivate Kaspersky with the button 'pause protection' for several minutes and it worked. The Witcher 3 saved correct and the savegames appeared in the save-folder. After activation the protection again, saving stopped working again.

Is there any feature in Kaspersky Total Security 2022 which could cause that behaviour? Some feature thats similar to the windows 'folder access protection'. Is there any way to exclude witcher3.exe or the save folder without deactivating the protection completly?

Thanks in advance!

Just to be sure: I'm using Win11.
