Hi,
First of all, thanks for playing! You've gotten pretty far if you're at this point (or you've found one of a few shortcuts... shhh!!) so I hope you've been enjoying the game and you're not too put off by the vague weirdness of it all.
It's been a few years since I updated the game, so I'm afraid I can't offer you an update that will fix this issue immediately because I'm no longer familiar with how it all works. I do know that the flag to continue can be triggered if you simply have the folders on your desktop (assuming your desktop is accessible for files). You will still have to do what the game asks.
Download this ZIP: https://drive.google.com/file/d/124EsYDqeWkTzpXe8Qsd8etA3n3rTGlbZ/view?usp=shari...
It has the folder the game is supposed to generate on your desktop. Simply extract this to the desktop as is (do not put it into a subfolder or anywhere else).
If this doesn't work, I will look into a bypass solution or attempt to fix the issue. Let me know!
