Elemental

decompression error

hello guys,

 

can someone please help? I bought the game last year and played the beta. When the game launched the impulse now told me i had to delete the game and install the retail version. I did and downloaded the retail but when the game tries to install i get the decompression error. Any ideas? I deleted and downloaded more than 10 times diferent versions and always get the same problem. (1.0, 1.5, 1.6, 1.7)

obviously its the same problem.   I assume you have already uninstalled it completely right?       The error to my knowledge suggests that its trying to decrompress files, but does not have proper rights to make such changes or cannot do so because of existing files.

 

I would say go and manually delete any still existing elemental beta folders.   Also, if you are running windows vista or windows 7, make sure you run Impulse as administrator so that it is allowed to overwrite existing files.
