How strange!
I apologize that you've had to experience this issue.
I try my best to ensure that everyone has a bug-free experience, but sometimes odd things like this still occur.
The only thing I can suggest at this point is to manually remove the save data for the game.
The game's data file is kept in
C:/Users/USER-NAME/AppData/LocalLow/Zed_Technician/BewareTheShadowcatcher
You'll need to replace the USER-NAME with the name of your computer.
There will be a file named GameData that you'll need to remove.
Once it's gone, relaunch the game and a new save file will be created.
Doing this may not even solve the problem, but it's the only thing I can think of to try.
I apologize once more for the issue.
