Summary0029370: NullReferenceException when save directory renamed outside game with invalid characters
DescriptionThe game produces a big red error popup due to a NullReferenceException when a save directory is renamed outside the game to include a character that would not normally be valid.

I managed this by running on Linux and renaming a save directory to Eöō½\⁄ but the key character that causes this is the backslash, which is not one Windows normally allows in filenames.
