Howdy all,
I'm trying to update after moving the game to another drive. SSD
The original drive it was on recently died even though I was not using it for the game no more, I'm getting this error message now.
Any help would be appreciated, if I must I'll scrap it and start from scratch, but UGGG!!!!
