Idasam Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 So where specifically do I install patch 1.1.0.9? I've never had trouble in the past, but I can't get this one to install. It wants me to choose the exact folder to install the patch into. This is what it's trying to do "E:\Program Files (x86)\Eagle Dynamics\DCS A-10C\New Folder". When I click install, it says that patch 1.1.0.8 should be installed and it has been installed since it was released. Is there a specific folder that the patches go into or what?

Is there a specific folder that the patches go into or what? Ensure the .exe file and the .BIN file is contained in one folder prior to running the .exe. Also ensure that one/both files have not been inadvertently renamed at download - in all probability what happened with your files. Double-check, rename as relevant and run the .exe again.

slug88 Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 It's probably failing because of that "New Folder" at the end of your path. The path needs to point to the base of your install. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

Oh, .exe as in the patch and the patch setup files that I downloaded?
Idasam Posted July 25, 2011 Author Posted July 25, 2011 Yeah, it still wants to know what folder to install the patch in.
159th_Viper Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 Oh, .exe as in the patch and the patch setup files that I downloaded? Yeah. One is an .exe and the other in a .BIN file, as follows: patch_setup_v1.1.0.9_en.exe and patch_setup_v1.1.0.9_en-1.bin What slug said too - path is incorrect. Remove the 'New Folder' bit and try.

"E:\Program Files (x86)\Eagle Dynamics\DCS A-10C\" This is what I'm using now and it's saying that "this folder already exists. Would I like to install to that folder anyway?".
Idasam Posted July 25, 2011 Author Posted July 25, 2011 I got it. Thank you gentlemen. I'm just a dumb ass.
