unable to locate COH directory

[IJoe]

IT WORKED!
Just came from skirmish game, Ty so much for all support and help.
And where can i get EF launchers icon?

Just open the shortcut's properties, find change icon, than, in the menu appeared, write the way to the EF launcher file. Simple as this.

I have same problem I am using dvd version of the game and i have all patches, 1.30 of ef, i have just Coh, i've opposingfronts too but it isnt installed.when i click to play it says "cannot find file location" when i press for check for updates it says "coh doesnt apear on your system" i have tried to change coh directory in the ef settings bu  Even if i change immediately turns blank. i also searched for your advice which is                                                                                                                                                                                           

If what @IJoe suggested didn't fix it, open regedit(start menu->run->regedit) and search for this path:

If you have 32 bits OS:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Company of Heroes

If you have 64 bits OS:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Company of Heroes

and check if the path there is the correct location of your CoH Directory.

    WHat is this? i find that location's folders and i dont understand what i should do? my coh directory is true also.

@Panzer

That registry key has a String value called "InstallLocation", it's value must be your current company of heroes directory. If has anything else or doesn't exists EF launcher will give an error.

Did you have retail or steam CoH?

What is your CoH directory?

Do you use a 64-bits or 32-bits OS?

[Rikard Blixt]

Looks like you are missing an end quotation mark on InstallLocation string.

Or... you are not supposed to have a start quotation mark on the same one. Try adding in the end, then removing both.

@Rizz
!! How could I overlooked that!!

@Panzer
Rizz is right, you need to remove the quotation mark from it... that value doesn't need it.

and i use 64bits
i removed the marks but FAIL again i tried everything! and everyday i want to play it more but something is blocking me, if you can help me please keep trying, thank you

[Blackbishop]

 ... remove the last back-slash from the InstallLocation value and try again .

Could you post also the values of this path?

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{97AFD0D8-5720-4A59-BFDC-CB92A36FADF9}_is1

can you export it, zip' it and upload it here?

[Panzer]

ups i dont have it

[Blackbishop]

Looks like that key isn't needed anymore since 1.30 ... my bad.

Could you try to reinstall CoH? Are you using a pirate version?

[Panzer]

nope its orginal version. i will reinstall coh and opposing, i dont have tales of valor maybe thats the reason?

[Blackbishop]

Just reinstall OF. You don't need to install vCoH and then OF.
