Whenever I clicked on the quit game button in the menu the game would freeze, no white screen, just frozen solid. I had to click after a minute until the game error window shows up telling me that something went wrong and the program has to close. It's possible to restart the game from where my save data left off but the problem continues endlessly.

Unfortunately after about 20 hours the game would completely freeze up upon saving the game, preventing me from pushing forward. Can anyone please help me?

the game is not allowed to reach your save game folder... my guess is its in c program files or even a onedrive folder

Maybe, but do you have any advice on solving this problem? Like disabling the gog overlay, or playing from the installation folder? I don't know what to do man :(

I am having a similar problem. Migrated to a new PC recently, whenever I quit BG1 or BG2, the game freezes right after I click the "close" button. Does not happen with any of my other games from GoG. PITA!

1 check that is the location... and if so then uninstall it from c program files
2 open Gog galaxy, goto settings tab and pick a different default location to install your games [see image]

note never have temp files goto the same location as games but always put them in their own temp location... more of an issue with older OS like W98-W10 but still worth doing with W11-W12

This is so weird to me, as a month ago I had a different computer, with Windows 10. All of my games were installed in c program files, and I had no issues. Now, I have a new computer, with Windows 11, and the only issue I have is BG1 and BG2 freezing when I try to close the games, which are currently installed in c program files.

I may have to try it your way anyhow.
