For God knows why, the AOE3 directories are split along two separate paths. One is under program files/microsoft games/aoe3, the other is under my documents/my games/aoe3. It took me a good month to figure that out, because it's SO logical. Anyway, go to the my documents/my games/aoe3 path and one of the folders is "savegames", make sure any downloaded games go in this folder (and unzipped, too). Then you should be able to watch it with no problem.

It has to do with the necessary user privliges to create recs, homecitys ect.
remember needing to run AoM as admin untill they changed it to this setup?
