Alternatively, if you really don't want to take a gamble on something going wrong and the game being made public, you could make a new game in CGoban and transcribe the game with the one on the server opened. It's somewhat time-consuming, but I also find it a good way to quickly review a game I played. (I have to use that for Tygem games I forgot to save right away, you can't seem to save them otherwise).

Around five minutes ago.

Did you download the linked files or just install through the KGS sites ?

Okay, problem solved, there was an old version in my download folder that I've mistaken with the new one, and I can save now !
