Yay, it's around 3 ******* hours later & now, I've only downloaded 25%...
-
Well, actually, someone from the Beta Server did give me some instructions earlier today, but, so far, I haven't had any luck with it yet.
Copy the beta install, replace the live install with the beta, select consistency check from the launcher.
Go into the directory, press control-A then control-C. Go into the live install directory, press control-A then control-V. It'll ask you if you want to replace the files. Tell it yes. Wait for it to finish.
On your launcher, go to the beta install, press the little down-triangle, press properties. It'll give you the directory where you installed it.
Remember to run a consistency check you copy it over. -
My speed right now is at 105 KB/sec.

Yeah try to do update with the launcher i did and was complete in under 20 minutes hope this helps. -
Yay, it just made it too 7%...
-
The NCsoft Launcher even said that it was a, trickle download.
-
As of now, it's been over 30 Minutes since I've begun too download Issue 21 & so far, I have only downloaded 6% of the new udpater & the amount of time keeps changing. It went from almost 400.00 too over 1,200.00 Minutes.
What's wrong with this thing? -
The updater is just REALLY slow for me, as usual...
-
What if I reinstalled winzip & fixed the file association?
-
Just about everything that's on my Laptop has been rewritten too .exe & it'll either just take me too a window with a few programs from my Desktop or it'll say, Application not found.
Does anyone know how too reset a Laptop back too an earlier date? -
So, I still haven't had any luck with this.

Exe files actually get asociated with a portion of windows called the shell. There are many sites out there on the net that have a reg file in a zip file you can download. There are some nastY viruses out there that change Your exe associiation to them selves to keep you infected and kill you AV. I have the reg file that will fix this for you, I can see if I an get it uploaded somewhere when I get home from working...which is often pretty late PST time, if you can't find it.
You shouldn't have to fix any shortcuts after the problem is fixed -

Sorry I'm on the wrong side of the planet and I'm not that much of an IT guy, I only know stuff from my years of trial and error (mostly error).
This is the microsoft guide. -

If I am correct you are going to need to redo all your desktop shortcuts.

Good. Looks like it redirected all your desktop shortcuts. I guess that makes it more "user friendly" sheesh.

Ok can you start the ncsoft launcher normally from the folder where it is installed (not the desktop shortcut)?
-
Quote:It says that it' an EXE File.Originally Posted by _Klaw_
That's because exe's should only be associated with each individual program.
Can you check the properties of the shortcut you use to start coh where is it pointing to? -
I'm in Properties now for the coh icon on my desktop, what next?
-
Okay, I've gotten too the window, but how do I actually do it? It's not giving me options for city of heroes or ventrilo so far.

It sounds like WinZip changed the file association for .exe to itself. You should be able to change it back, but it is different in different versions of windows. Go to the start menu, click the Help option and search for "File Associations", it should tell you where to go to change it back.
-
This all started today when I decided too install winzip. I noticed that after I had installed winzip, that other programs such as Ventrillo or City of Heroes, would not open, it would just take me too winzip. So, I decided too uninstall the Godforesaken program & now I just can't open anything, it just takes me too a window with a few programs from my Desktop.
Please help me, I have no idea what too do & this has gotten me so angry that it's giving me headaches.

You know, I'm done reading the pages on this thread, it's mostly just people complaining anyway...

I wish that they'd make a Giant Robot Booster Pack already...

Apparently, the trick to make the downloading go faster is not working.

I was on Step 11 before I gave up. -
That's nice & all, but the problem is that we have a launcher that is slower than snail **** in the middle of January...
