    Default Unable to use 'Run Setup'

    Hello. It's exactly as the question says...whenever I click on 'Run Setup' in my SS folder (6.3) in the start menu it comes up with this...



    Right now I can't alternate between campaigns and try any fancy add ons. I had tried reinstalling the mod after totally wiping it from the PC but same issue again. It was working initially but am not sure what could have caused it to suddenly stop working properly. The game works fine aside from this.

    Was your UAC disabled on installation? If not please disable, then right click Set Up Icon as Run as Admin

    Isn't the UAC for other version of Windows like Vista etc? I'm using XP and when I right click the 'Run As' tab, I can select my account which is has full admin settings etc, there is no joy. Unless I have missed something..

    Ok, so you are using XP, my instructions was for WIN7.

    This might indicate a download error, please check your download file sizes against the download thread, one of them may be corrupt. You should have 5 Bin Files and an Exe, they must be in the same folder, when you run the Exe

    Have you installed Kingdoms, at least one campaign and did you install Patch 1.5 for MWT2?

    Yes mate. Kingdoms, all the campaigns and 1.5 are on there. The original M2TW works fine, no issues there and I can still run SS in the early eras no problem. The thing is, I was actually able to run the Setup when I first installed it

    I want you to install SS outside of Program Files, create a new Folder call it SS, install 6.3 to that folder. BEFORE you do I want you to do a Registry Clean, make sure there are no loose ends

    It's all good now Joe, I realized when i went to reinstall it the SEGA file was still there along with the SS saves etc so once I got rid of that, reinstalled everything its working fine now. Thanks for you help.
