as Boh. wrote, most common are any Antivirus software and User Account Control (UAC) from Microsoft Windows.
It can also happen if a crash to desktop comes out of nowhere (in all Ageod games, like casued from DirectX, problems with the window mode, problems with hot graphic cards, last but not least bugs and hickups in the code etc) and the files are written during turn processing, but not ended/saved properly.
as you have the backup file, 90% chance to simply restore by the way they describe it.
while testing fromMay to September i had exactly two crash to desktop situations and to restore one time. most problems seem to be related to the windows system/the AV software

...not paid by AGEOD.
however, prone to throw them into disarray.

‘Everything is very simple in War, but the simplest thing is difficult. These difficulties accumulate and produce a friction which no man can imagine exactly who has not seen War . . . in War, through the influence of an infinity of petty circumstances, which cannot properly be described on paper, things disappoint us, and we fall short of the mark.‘
