Do you have .NET Framework 3.5 installed?

Do you have internet connection in that pc when starting EF?

Is your PC behind a firewall/proxy?

Did you run EF launcher with admin rights?

Could you check if the size of your installer was the correct? (Properties->General Tab->Size:814943909 bytes)

Can you try this:

  • Make a new shorcut for Eastern Front like this: "C:\Games\THQ\Company of Heroes\RelicCoH.exe" -dev -mod Eastern_Front -nomovies
  • Check in Company of Heroes directory\EF_Launcher_Config.ini and change the line Auto_Update=True to Auto_Update=False. Try to run the launcher again.

Make sure you replace C:\Games\THQ\Company of Heroes\ with your current CoH directory, also, remember to include in the shorcut the quotes around the path and each parameter should have a space between them.
