Install Problem & more

STEED · 12-01-15, 08:41 AM

Thanks, my friend is running it now and I'm having ago myself.

I gave up over year ago trying to get GWX to run without CTD, Stock ran ok but after playing GWX no competition. Anyway that is a separate issue, getting back to the issue here how long does this SH3 Cleaner go for?

It depends on OS and amount of installed software.
On some older XP machines it lasts up to 10 - 15 min.

I'm coming up on 20 minutes and my mate just passed 25 minutes. In his case hes going out around hour and half time just hope his finished by then.

Just to add I'm running a WIN8.1 as well.

Quick question if his scan is still running the time he needs to go out is it ok to stop?

Hmm...

I think the cleanup is not completed then.

Anyway after stop he should do a manual system reboot.

I will pass that info on, he will just have to set a day to do it. Still cleaning my PC but I got no plans to go to bed for another seven hours hope its done by then.

Keep you posted.

OK hes back in and has informed me hes done the SH3 clean but the message 1628: Failed to complete installation has come up again and yet as before he launched the game and did a quick spin around the harbor.

Some good news he has not been forced to follow the original download path as pointed out. He has now got it on this.. C:/Games/Ubisoft/SilentHunterIII

I suggested he does no more and just try out the game and see if this Turm problem crops up again. So that will be it until Friday or Saturday with a update.

BTW: Told him to launch the game from the icon in the folder and not to create a desktop short cut.
