I started playing God Of War 1 via the God Of War Collection that I ripped from my own disk using disk dumper. I was playing the game without issues until I got the Treasure Room save point by where you get Zeus' thunder bolt ability. After playing a little more I tried to save. The game stops emulating at that point with the following error message. I cleared all my caches and restarted my PC and RPCS3. Now when I try to save at all, it shows this same error every time. Any help would be appreciated.

Move .working_BCUS98229_GOW1 to outside of the RPCS3 folder and try again

Move .working_BCUS98229_GOW1 to outside of the RPCS3 folder and try again

So it saves just  fine whenever .working and .backup aren't present in the savegame folder, but if they are present, it fails to save every instance consistently. Is there any setting to prevent RSPC3 from automatically creating the .working and .backup folders so I can save without having to move them every time?
