N00by guy needs help.

Yeah sorry everyone, I'm a new n00b. I have a pretty huge problem here. (I didn't see this problem in the *no offense* totally useless plaync help thingy, so came here).

I'm using a 10 day trial of City of heroes. i installed it yesterday and it was working fine. So i turned it off and haven't tried using it until this morning.

BUT GUESS WHAT HAPPENED??

I clicked on the shortcut to the updater on my desktop, and it said it was installing again. To which I shouted: IT'S ALREADY INSTALLED, YOU JACKASS!!! Anyway, it wont let me do anything because it says it needs installing.

Oh, and i forgot to mention. it doesn't let me instal;l even if I want to. I just get this jibbins.

'Error opening file C:\Program Files\City of Heroes/CohUpdater.exe

You may be out of disk space or you may be trying to install to a location where you have insufficient permissions'.

Which is, of course, complete rubbish because:

a). I have about 63GB worth of free space, and

b). IT'S ALREADY <removed> INSTALLED!!!

So thanks for reading my rant, and i hope you can help (Prefferably soon, because as I said it's only a 10 day trial). Thanks in advance,

The updater shortcut should be pointing to C:\Program Files\City of Heroes/CohUpdater.eu.exe

Try changing it to that.

Also it looks like there is a '/' where there should be a '\' (assuming this was not a typo of course)

The full path should be C:\Program Files\City of Heroes\CohUpdater.eu.exe

Again assuming that's the path you've installed it to

Eeeer... it says the .eu. bit is invalid whenever I change it.

*Edit* it seems to be working now. I just renamed CohUpdater to 'Cohupdater.eu' and it seems to have worked...

Thanks for all your help guys. Look me up in Atlas park.
