Try: Move any persistent save file out of the game's save folder, then go to your %appdata%\RenPy folder and move the game's save folder there somewhere else, finally - try to start it again.

made a copy of my saves, deleted the game folder from my computer, as well as the as the folder from appdata/Renpy, then redownloaded it and started it up closed it then moved the copies of my saves into the save folder, it works and got my saves, so problem solved.

the file path for the appdata, for those new to this stuff is, C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Roaming\RenPy,
had some trouble figuring this out at first so thought id put it here just in case, if you don't know appdata is a hidden folder, so you need to click "view" then click the hidden items box.

Your translation was great, I managed to find it. But I couldn't understand what you did, I found the roaming folder but I didn't find anything about the saves, nothing about the games. I'm also using Google Translate now ok.
There is no renpy folder
