Why is that? If you apply the patch before installing the game then it fixes
the problem.  From running tests with CreateFile it looks like there are only
three possibilities for the appropriate permissions:
{G_RW, G_R , FS_RW, FS_RW, ERROR_NONE},
{G_RW, G_W , FS_RW, FS_RW, ERROR_NONE},
{G_RW, G_RW, FS_RW, FS_RW, ERROR_NONE},

Since the place you changed actually doesn't do any writing I would say the top
option is the most appropriate (GENERIC_READ,
FILE_SHARE_READ|FILE_SHARE_WRITE), the second option probably would not work
because of other code, and the bottom option would be more permissions than
necessary (this is the method implemented in your patch).  The only other issue
would be CREATE_ALWAYS vs. OPEN_ALWAYS, which MSDN indicates should be
OPEN_ALWAYS since the profile file should be created if it is not found and
opened if it is found.
