Failed installation
« on: Friday, March 06, 2015, 21:05:18 PM »
Hello. I have downloaded AAO25 from sourceforge (link from top menu of this site).
While I'm trying to install game, there is a statement on my screen: Installation Failed at step 1, Please check your internet connection then click download to resume the Download. I hope, i don't have to explain there is not any problem with my Internet... Hmmm, how to solve this?

Did you download with IE?

At least back in the day, that file is to big for IE...

It might have been the way I compressed it. Definitely get rid of WinRAR and use 7-Zip, even if it doesn't fix the issue.

Run 25Assist.exe as Admin

Wait for the next version of Assist that will include the ability to chose an alternate download location.

My best tip would be to move the content from Program files to the desktop, where there is no issues with permission... Still use run as admin the first time to allow PB to install fully.

Be patient for the upcoming update, it will make a lot of things much nicer. ELiZ is working hard on fixing some issues that have been around a while.
