Can you check this?
Open Regedit (Windows Key + R -> Enter regedit).

Do they exist? What's the info inside it?

Could you export it(right click over it's folder) and upload it here? if the extension isn't allowed change from reg to txt or add them to a zip file.

By the way you posted the EF key(a), what about b & c ??

Your file system seems to be ok, do you installed Company of Heroes or is a backup* deployed?


*backup deployed: when you copy some directory to another place to avoid deleting and moving again to the previous folder some time after.

I have a doubt about some file of your CoH directory, what's the full name of the file "Uninstall_E..."?

Also were you changing files of the CoH directory? You have "My Mod" folder, smells like corxis, do you installed previously any other mods or tried to edit CoH or EF?

I recomend to reinstall ToV, uninstall EF first then ToV, check that all the files are wiped out. After that install ToV, update it to 2.601 and install EF 1.20 and update it as well.

You'll have to reinstall because looks like that all the necessary folders aren't there. I was going to post my old picture yesterday but i didn't find it till now; and i rather to post some evidence to demonstrate my point when possible.

I had OF but since OF full patched equals to ToV full patched(excluding by the locked content, but files and folder wise).

...

Lol... now I seen my OF picture that's the name of the Retail uninstaller.
