Unable to patch SH3.exe

maillemaker · 12-27-17, 07:03 PM

Yup, I just did a complete uninstall and re-install of SH3, then copied the file into the folder with the bat file.

When I try to run the bat file, it says it's not recognized.

Product version of SH3.exe is 1.4.0.1.

It is not read-only.

I'm running Windows 10.

Hi mm
Seems like an administrator or permission problem.

The new folder you created for the application must not be read only.

If you are running Windows 10 make sure that you are running it in Windows 7 compatibility mode and also as an administrator.
Make sure you bat file can write to your SH3.exe

I can make new files in the folder so it is not a permissions problem.

Hi mm
That I would find frustrating and annoying but also a relief.

Hello I'd like to continue this thread because I have the same problem and I still don't know what to do to fix it.

I have my sh3.exe in the V16B1 folder with (I guess) removed read only attribute, also I have installed GWX3.0.
