So, this is a weird one - I simply cannot save a game. I set the .exe to run as administrator, but that does not appear to have helped in any way. I hit save, and no save game file is made - I hit F5 to quicksave, and nothing. Manually hit quicksave, and nothing. I'm completely baffled ...
 
I have the same problem. No reason to start a game if I can't save it. Hope this one gets fixed quickly.
 
So I figured out my issue - I use Bit Defender antivirus software, and apparently that was blocking it. I had to add it as a trusted application - which is odd, I generally don't have to do that for Steam games ... but it does save now
 
^ This saved me. I could not figure out why I could not save. It was my Bitdefender. I had to the .exe for the game through the firewall and I turned off the ransomware protection. However, I still cannot figure out where the saves are being stored?? I can't find them anywhere--within Steam's userdata files or the Civ files itself. Anyone know where they are saved at?
 
For me, they're located here: C:\Users\<user name>\Documents\my games\Sid Meier's Civilization VI\Saves\Single
