Unable to locate CoH directory
« on: December 18, 2012, 07:23:28 PM »
Hello everyone.
First of all i know that there was a topic about this i did every singe thing there but still i can't fix this problem.When i press "play" button at the launcher it says Unable to locate CoH directory .I'm 100% sure my game is patched and i only own CoH not OF nor TOV.
When i press settings from the launcher and select a directory after i click ok it erases the directory i selected there.So i get the same error over and over.Please do not link the "read before posting list of issues fixes" becouse i've been there for 2 days.Tried regedit and everything.Btw i play the game from steam and have win7.Please help me thank you.

There is no other way to get this error and no other way to fix it without what it says there. But that is a question always should be asked, because sometimes things are omitted.

Do you have installed two different versions of the game? (Retail & Steam)
Do you have admin rights?
Does Eastern_Front.module exist on Company of Heroes directory?
Do you have a Program Files\THQ\Company of Heroes folder there with EF contents?
