Can't run installer
« on: August 09, 2010, 06:58:43 PM »
I downloaded EF mod and when I tried to install it in C:\Program Files\THQ\Company of Heroes, after it asks if I wan't a desktop icon it gives me an error saying folder title can't use /:*?"<>| in title.  I'm using xp and I've never seen this before.  What am I doing wrong.COH is updated to most recent patch and I don't have either expansion.Thanks in advance for any help. ???

It's related to Start Menu. Make sure the Start Menu folder you are trying to create doesn't have any of those letters in it.

Actually it suggests Company of Heroes: Eastern Front by default, hence everyone will experience this error. Just a small fail ^_^'

Fishercat: just remove the ":" sign and everything will be cool
