Did you unhide all files and folders in Folder Options?
Have you disabled the UAC?

I'ii wait for someone, then, too, as I never unpacked just one file, I unpacked them all.

Medieval II Total War\tools\unpacker is unpack_all.bat. Run it with the UAC disabled.

If you installed in the default foder, they may end up in roaming.

You don't have to.

Just click it, "Yes" to the three disclaimers, and let the tool do its job.

C:/Program Files/SEGA/Medieval II Total War/tools/unpacker/unpack_all.bat is not a valid Win 32 application

It means you have to be logged in as Administrator for one.

Copy/paste the .dll files in the main Medieval 2 folder into the unpacker folder for three.
