Unable to Install Beta 4 ???

August 18, 2012 3:55:01 AM from Elemental ForumsElemental Forums

Trying to install Beta 4, but I get this every time I run the .exe

I did a re-install of FE as well, and it is installed in the correct place - C:\Program Files(x86)\Stardock Games\Fallen Enchantress

Think I'll try and download the Update again, maybe that will work...

I have not had the unfortunate error as you have.  But if you downloaded and installed the latest version ( 0.95 ) You do not need to patch to Beta 4.  You've got it!

Also if that didn't help, then you should still be able to get help from those awesome support folks.

Same issue for me on my new Win-7 box, but not on ancient XP box.  Both have the game installed to the same non-default location.

I made some progress...not sure if it applies to anyone else....

Original .950 issue:  clean install on new Win-7 64 bit box.  Installed .77 and it ran ok.  Then tried to update to .950 and the install mocked me with the same "not found" message as the OP.  Same .915 update worked on the ancient XP box that had gone thru all the updates from the beginning of the beta.

Then today - tried the .951 update and install failed with the same message.

Then installed .915 sucessfully; then installed .951 ok !!!    Running it now.

So, .950 & .951 seem to require something that is included in .915 but not in .75.  So the newer updates are not fully cumulative, although I thought they were supposed to be.
