I would reinstalling Eastern front due to a EF launch bug that happend quiet often last time and now i can't even install correctly Eastern Front.
I got by installing first this message:

than when i continue by ignoring it, it is continuing installing the game and download the first patch
After instaling the first pacth and would re-run the launcher i get the error message that the launcher could not been started if i wanna search the problem why or nothing happen aftert the patch update finnisht.
I allready tried to re donwload the mod and reinstal but hopeless...
Could anyone say me whats the problem? The last tme i played EF is about 2 weeks ago and worked fine...
PS: Sry for bad english i cannot english very well

Make sure you have the admin rights on the folder you are going to install EF.
-
I have all rights for it i made the adlin right necessary on minimum on my PC so it didn't asked me by the installation...

That's not what I'm implying. As far as I can remember that means the file cannot be written due two things:
1) Because it is being used.
2) Because lacks permission to write.
And as I'm sure number one is not the case, it might be number two. Check this (http://www.byteblocks.com/post/2009/09/02/Change-file-or-folder-owner-on-Windows-7.aspx).

But strangly i have a complet enew computer using win8 and i have installed it on the company of heroes fodler...
SO i don't see why it should be this problem but gonna check it out thanks.
If it is not that than i think that even you can't help? :/

I have that issue sometimes when installing EF or any of it's multiple patches only once. After you change the owner status it will never get that again, at least until you delete EF and the folders and install it later.

Ok i checkt this thing out but the data description are not the same, i can't change something on the right on its showed properties/security.
Does it give an update for win 8 with this fix?
And btw, to exclude misunderstoods, i have eastern front installed but the launcher give me the error message that it could not launch the game on place from the Ef launcher.
i am thinking about that the error stay on the launcher updater itself, what i already had a while ago and only way to fix it was to put it manualy.
