Problems when running on Vista Ultimate

Vengeance · Post by **Vengeance** » Tue Jan 30, 2007 9:14 pm

I dunno if I am missing a security setting or something, but when I run WinEQ, it errors out with the following message:

Could not successfully retrieve new file LavishPatcher.exe (-20). Aborting patch. You may continue to use the software.

At this point, the app loads to the tray, but you cannot load any game specific settings (Everquest). I am not able to create any profiles, load any instances ect...

Any advice? I'm quite new to this OS.

Thanks,
Vengeance

In a nutshell, the issue is that your user doesn't have write access to the WinEQ 2 folder. This means that when WinEQ tries to update (or finish installing) it is simply unable to do so.

As I am also new to Vista, I'm not sure what the best way to do it is. Perhaps running WinEQ 2 as administrator would be
