I had still a PBEM game going when I did the update.
Now I get an error if I try to continue that game.

Very odd as this file should be included in the latest patch, but if it is indeed missing, please try and download the following file:

https://we.tl/t-LI5SvojZBz

Then place it in the following folder on your end, e.g. the folder that matches your World at War installation path:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Matrix Games\Strategic Command WWII - World at War\Pbem\DAT\v1.11.01

Does it also have to be present in

C:\Users\XXX\AppData\Local\My Games\Strategic Command WWII - World at War\PBEM++\DAT\v1.11.01\

I have only the path
C:\Users\XXX\AppData\Local\My Games\Strategic Command WWII - World at War\PBEM++\DAT\v1.10\
not the one with 1.11.01

but
C:\Program Files (x86)\Matrix Games\Strategic Command WWII - World at War\Pbem\DAT\v1.11.01
is there and contained the uploaded file but with a different date.

No, the hidden user path is no longer used unless for possibly customized campaigns. All the default campaigns now check against this path that I indicated above, which is the last path you listed, e.g.:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Matrix Games\Strategic Command WWII - World at War\Pbem\DAT\v1.11.01

Odd that it is showing a different date on your end, but it should work with the file I sent over if you need to replace the one you have there.
