Windows Vista: Can't find CoHupdater?

When I installed CoH, Vista put the cohupdater.exe on the desktop, not in the coh folder. If he moved it off the desktop, that might be why Vista can't find it.
If he deleted it because he thought it was 'just a shortcut', then he might not have it anymore.
Or, he might just have to right click the icon and 'run as administrator' to get it to work right, too.
It's kind of hard to troubleshoot by proxy.

I had a similar problem earlier this week; all I did was load the game on another machine, then copied the COH updater over to my game machine. Worked like a charm. Thank Mkosc82 if it works, I stole the idea from him.
Howdy,
I am posting this for a friend.
They have windows vista, and have the following problem:
Normally, when I click on my CoH icon, a small pale blue bar with white text that says "Loading" comes up in the center of my screen. Then after that, when it works, a box comes up with check files, etc. Now, when I click my link, I get the "loading" message, and then "unable to locate cohupdater". And it's there, because I'm in the CoH folder, clicking directly on the executable file.
It sounds to me like something got corrupted somehow, and needs a reinstalling. But has anyone else experienced this or knows another way to fix it?
Thanks.
