    Unhappy Need help fixing my stupid mistake

    Hi, I have the anthology edition of RTW so my directory was set to creative and not the other one. Being the muppet I am I didn't think to change the directory (because I didn't know). Now I need help trying to get the mod in the right place.

    I've tried uninstalling it so I could reinstall it to the right place, but for some reason the thing just freezes when I try that (I tried it at work, starting at the start of the day and by about lunch time - 4 hours later - the progress bar still hadn't moved.)
    Then I tried just manually moving it, but apparently that's gonna take 10 -20 hours and my laptop can't really last that long on it's crummy battery life.

    Don't really know what to do now, is there some option where I can move it or what? Cause I really want to try this mod out.

    You may have run out of disk space on your primary disk (the one where Windows resides). There is no way to change the location the installer will put the temporary files, so you should probably install 7-zip, open the installer with it and extract all the files to the right directory. You'll need to create the shortcut manually though.

    That or you could try to find your Temp folder (usually C:\Temp\) and empty it. If you fear to mess up again, you can try DiskCleanup -a tool you can acces from your control panel \ performance & maintance section.

    Also, you might just want to uninstall EB by using the Programs & Features tool of your Control Panel (click the link in my sig for more detailed instructions). That should remove EB pretty quickly; well at least in under 1 hour.

    Combine both methods, and you should be able to succesfully reinstall EB.
