Unable to change Province Names

[NateDogg]

For whatever reason, I'm an now unable to change a province's title.

When you rename a province, you're supposed to enter in the new name, and then close the Province's menu and the name will change, but it remains the same. Reopening the province's menu shows me that the name wasn't changed at all.

What do I do?


Edit: Checking province history is telling me that I never changed the name at all.

It may be the case that its also another province's name so the game prevents you from doing it to avoid error

It's a known bug. Here is a comment from a dev in the bug forum:

[...]should definitely not be on by default for Single Player.

You can work around this issue by going to Multiplayer, host a game, go to Options > Multiplayer and set Allow Province Name Change to Yes. Then go back to Single Player and you will be able to rename provinces.

It isn't another province's name. I've tried calling it "ddddddddd" just to see if it does anything.
Same issue
