Fear & Hunger: Profile Error Occurred? (Fix)
Short answer
So! I was having the same problem, after a quick google search I found this discussion in a rpg maker forum: "1- Go to your app data folder in Windows (C:\Users\[Your Username]\AppData\Local).
How to fix it
- Open your Windows AppData local folder by navigating to C:\Users\YourUsername\AppData\Local. Remember to enable viewing hidden folders if you cannot see this directory.
- Locate and delete the folder named "nwjs".
- Inside that same local directory, open the "User Data" folder, then open the "Default" folder.
- Find and delete the files named "Web Data" and "Web".
If it still doesn't work
- Locate the
package.jsonfile inside the main game directory. - Open this file using a standard text editor.
- Modify the empty name string labeled
"name": ""so that it contains a unique identifier, such as"name": "your_game_name". Changing this value forces the game engine to utilize a separate, dedicated profile folder specifically for the application.
What players reported
Every time I start up the game a second popup screen shows up, saying something about the nw.js being out of date? "Some features may be unavailable. Please specify a different profile directory or use a newer version of NW.js." it says. I've never played it previously.

Other suggestions
If that doesn't solve the issue: Find the package.json file in the game directory; Open it with a text editor; Change "name": "", string to "name": "your_game_name", Now the engine will use a separate profile folder for this app; Example.[imgur.com]
