You must install Eastern Front on CoH folder not in any self-created folder. So when installing EF you shall put C:\Program Files (x86)\THQ\Company of Heroes\ as path, and before playing check in the launcher Settings that path is in the CoH Directory option.

Do you have installed CoH? EF isn't stand-alone you know, is just an add-on to CoH. This is how should looks like your path.

Well if i were you, i'd save the installer in other path. And before installing, do right click on "Company of Heroes" folder, go to security tab and click on advanced options, on Owner, check what user owns the permissions; if you have problems like cannot delete something or cannot save something is because of that.

In the Owner tab, click on edit, then choose your user from the list, and check the option "Replace owner on..." and save :P. I don't have an OS in english but in spanish, I tried to make an illustration of how to do it, I hope that works.

EDIT: Remember to install and update CoH before install, update and play EF.
