All this has already been said and didn't help us. Please read others posts before writing... the same things...

Alright I found what the "problem" was in MY case (don't know if this is the same for you but must be somehow related). Here's what I posted on another thread here : http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/18383-help-with-my-profile-name/ "Well ok it turned out to be a security problem linked to my Windows documents folder which is only accessible through VPN because it's on a server. ArmA 2 stores player info in there in an ArmA 2 folder and of course it was not accessible while I was not on the VPN. Once again the developers of the game could have taken this potential case into account and allow creation in the game folder (like they actually do with that PLAYER 1 profile or the windows name profile automatically created but not editable in-game). But they forgot about that..."

@Guidez: sorry but that doesn't help me :(. Like that guy (http://dayzmod.com/f...change-my-name/) i'm stuck... If I open the profile window there are no profiles displayed. If i create one it is not displayed afterwards. The creation window sets the name as PLAYER 1 and that zone is NOT EDITABLE. I tried clicking, double-clicking, doing backspace etc I cannot edit the name. Everything but the name... And as the profile doesn't appear in the list once created I cannot even edit it either. I also tried to have a look at the game folder. It appears that after removing all your profile files the game will automatically create one with your windows name. But if I then try to create another one it will get rid of it (not delete it but not use it anymore) and create a PLAYER 1 profile that I cannot change... Also I tried ArmA 2 and Operation Arrowhead and none worked. EDIT: well ok it turned out to be a security problem linked to my Windows documents folder which is only accessible through VPN because it's on a server. ArmA 2 stores player info in there in an ArmA 2 folder and of course it was not accessible while I was not on the VPN. Once again the developers of the game could have taken this potential case into account and allow creation in the game folder (like they actually do with that PLAYER 1 profile or the windows name profile automatically created but not editable in-game). But they forgot about that...

Got the same problem here... @TV.: your link leads nowhere, just a 'File not found.' page. @salty: can you read the posts before replying with nonsense ? @Whiteshadow197: if you go to your 'arma 2 operation arrowhead' and remove your 'PLAYER%201.ArmA2OAProfile' file (or other ueseless profiles) the game will create one with your Windows name automatically. Not the best of course but that's already better maybe. Adding other profile files by duplication and rename doesn't work. The game doesn't take them into account (in our case). All that might be linked to a security issue...
