Hi Folks,
New to EF and having trouble installing it. I'm getting an error saying folder can not include the following characters / : * ? etc. I'm not technical so if there's a "101 way to address" that would be much appreciated.

When promted to select the path for the start menu thingy, delete the ":" character.
-
This is what I see when installer kicks in:
Set up will install into the following folder:
C:\Program Files (x86)\THQ\Company of Heroes
I hit next and get shortcut in the following folder
Company of Heroes Eastern Front\Company of Heroes: Eastern Front
I hit next and that's when I get the error
-
Remove ":" from "Company of Heroes: Eastern Front"
-
OK got it. Just did it and it has installed. Tks very much. Now that it's installed how do I launch it? I can't find icon or launch point. Tks for your help and patience. ;)

Check in your Company of Heroes directory for the EF_Launcher.exe. Have you installed Steam or Retail(DVD) CoH??
-
I have Steam installed but only for one game and do not use it. I'm running vista and launch the COH from the games tab under the start menu. Where do I find the COH directory?
-
Did you have retail version?
"C:\Program Files\THQ\Company of heroes"
-
steam stores the game under it's file, in a weird place. least for me it did i use vista so it might be because of that idk.
it's in something like steamapps.
took me a while to find it myself.
