When I found how to take ownership of w:a folder I launched w:a game and it created PX folder. Because of that, sprites.dat file was created, so as PX.ini and sprites was loaded in-game. That's it.

Mh, no way, PX must save files to the disk. At least because of fonts, PX saves them to disk and load them from there again, so without files saved it will crash. Windows made some hax with home directory, i'm sure.

Yes, Windows does something with it when it's restricted in rights. There are some "ghost" files (not visible or accessible from super-user at all, but accessible from restricted user profiles). But, the restricted folder is restricted.

Do not install into Program Files.

Yes, I forgot to say... It was in Program files, so I moved it.
