Oblivion won't save game or settings.

[SHINOVEN]

First of all, I've read everything on the Internet:
I don't have any antivirus or things like bittorrent.
I don't have that thing of Windows Antivirus that somewhat controls access to the folders (I don't remember how was it called).
The game is installed on E: while the saves folder should but does not generate in C: (not even the Oblivion folder)
Manually adding the saves folder in C: does not work like some games did.
Manually editing the settings text and saving won't affect the game while the text remains changed (which is weird as hell).
Thanks, and sorry for my tone, I'm just so pissed...

The Oblivion.ini may be the problem, but it doesn't create anywhere in My Games and verifying files won't solve it. What do I do?

The my games\Oblivion folder with a save folder and Oblivion.ini is created when starting the game, even if you delete it a new one comes next time you play.

Perhaps Oblivion or steam is not allowed to edit your "my documents" or "my games". And is unable to write or create..
-Have you tried with a Administrator account or running Steam and Oblivion as Administrator? (Right click and run as administrator)

Run oblivion (and steam) as administrator. Should do this for any old game in general

Go to Documents/My Games/Oblivion
Right click ini see if its set to read only. Alter it to read/write.
Start game and alter settings, play a little, leave running, alt+tab to Documents/My Games/Oblivion and change ini back to read only (if it lets you).
Now close game and restart. See if that has worked.

OK, that worked, thanks, but now a new problem comes in:
I need to play it in Spanish and there's not any language option despite editing oblivion_default.ini where the game is installed and changing the ilanguage line. But saving that change won't change the game it's weird.

Found out that Goty Deluxe only has english, how sad. Maybe there's a mod or something.
