The only time my saves have been corrupted, was when the game "disabled my sound card".
The game corrupts the saves, so that it doesn't read them, even though the files are in the OUTPUT folder.
You know they have been corrupted, when you go to load you game, and you have no profile or games to load.

SOLUTION
Make a folder anywhere on your computer called "C3 saves". Find the folder you installed Commandos 3 in, then go to the OUTPUT folder, and copy all the files in it, and paste them into the "C3 saves" folder.
If your save files get corrupted, just copy the back ups, and paste over the files in the OUTPUT folder.
I recommend while playing, exiting the game and backing up your saves regularly. This means if your saves get corrupted, you only have to replay a short amount of the game.

Follow these backing up guidelines, and you can play the game with out worrying about your save games.
 

Patch v1.42 fixes this bug, but I would still continue backing up, just incase Windows corrupts them.
