I finished "A Complication with the Computronic Cerebrum" without the help of any factions. Then I started doing faction quests and got stuck at “The Last Day of William Wray”. I did not have access to the floor of Auntie in the elevater. I saw other people had access through the quest "Recall Order for the Trifurcated Brain", but I never triggered that quest since I conquered the Archive alone. Attached is my save: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Bozf2Y0QlhuhiEY1c3-veIq8vpL0oxUy/view?usp=sharing

I own the OG edition and the Spacer's Choice edition on both Steam and MS Store. I finished the game and wanted to load my saves on other versions/platforms. I had no trouble with simply copy and paste the save files except the Spacer's Choice edition on MS Store. It seems on that end, the saves are stored differently. Despite the different naming patterns, I noticed several differences. I found that all saves are compressed with zlib, but the MS Store saves have 4 extra bits at the beginning of the files, reflecting the size before compression. I also noticed that Steam version is 1.6411.19706.0 and the MS Store version is 1.6415.19706.0. So when I started a fresh game on both platforms with the exact same setting, the first autosave created showed dozens of lines of differences after decompression, like "PlayerCompanionCommandComponent_C_2147478507" in the Steam version and "PlayerCompanionCommandComponent_C_2147422616" in the MS Store version. I also looked into the 1KB metadata.dat that contains some basic information to the save files, but there were several HASH that I did not know what they referred to. So, in general, I could not load my saves on Spacer's Choice edition on MS Store. I wonder if anyone could help me. I have attached some saves for reference. Thank you very much in advance.
