On Microsoft Windows systems this is a folder named 'uqm' in the application data folder for the current user. This is usually in one of the following locations: - "C:\Windows\Application Data\" (Windows 95, 98, SE without separate users) - "C:\Windows\Profiles\YourName\Application Data\" (Windows 95/98/SE with separate users) - "C:\Documents and Settings\YourName\Application Data\" (Windows NT/2k/XP) The "Application Data" folder may be hidden. You can tell Windows to display hidden files and folders in the Folder Options dialog, which you can find in the Tools menu of any folder window. On Unix systems this personal uqm data is stored in "~/.uqm". Place the file you download there and see if you can run it.

The UQM save format will also probably change in the future, as the current format is quite messy. Some data isn't saved (e.g. bug 453 (http://uqm.stack.nl/cgi-bin/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=453)) and the save game format is different depending on machine architecture (bug 44 (http://uqm.stack.nl/cgi-bin/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=44)).
Also, there are minor differences in gameplay between SC2 and UQM (mostly related to randomly generated content such as planet topography and minerals, see bug 737 (http://uqm.stack.nl/cgi-bin/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=737)). What this means is that:
