I'm having trouble with #5 on the list of instructions.

I have tried EVERY variable I could think of and no joy.
This is the end result of my following the instructions that apparently are not working for me.

"C:\Program Files (x86)\NCSoft\Launcher\NCLauncher.exe /LaunchGame=CohBeta"

If you have NCsoft Launcher but do not have COH Beta installed. All I get are errors about it being in not valid file path and that I should look at it but it wont let me click apply and go on.

1. Run NCsoft Launcher shortcut to get the latest update.
2. The NCsoft Launcher will start.
3. Create a copy of the NCsoft Launcher desktop shortcut.
4. Right click on the new shortcut and open the Properties option.
5. In the Target window, add the following flag to the end of the line:
[space]/LaunchGame=CohBeta
6. Run the shortcut.
7. The NCsoft Launcher will open, starting a City of Heroes Beta installation.
8. Click Install.
9. If you are on Windows Vista or Windows 7, confirm the UAC prompts. (if UAC is turned on).
10. After the installation completes, double-click CITY OF HEROES BETA in the NCsoft Launcher’s games list to play.

Im running Win 7 Enterprise 32 bit. For me it displays
"C:\Program Files\NCSoft\Launcher\NCLauncher.exe" /LaunchGame=CohBeta
/LaunchGame=CohBeta should go outside the quotation mark separated by a space.
