C&C Zero Hour Not working on EA App
Since installing the EA App I am unable to complete the download of and install "C&C Generals and Zero Hour". The download reaches 99%, prepares to install, reaches 42% then the error in the screenshot pops up. I have uninstalled and deleted all associated files, re-downloaded/re-installed, re-installed the EA App, Cleared the EA App Cache under "Recovery". I have sucessfully downloaded other C&C games with no issues. This exact error is popping up for people playing "dead space 1" too.
Hmm. It looks like my instructions weren't very clear. I'll try to explain better:
First, try to install the game as before, and when you get the error in the EA App, leave it as "paused", don't cancel it.
Then, open command prompt as administrator, which I think you did.
Next, type the following, but don't press enter until you've typed it all in:
cd C:\Program Files\EA Games\Command and Conquer Generals Zero Hour\__Installer
You can copy this and paste it by right-clicking in the command prompt.
If you did it right, it should either change the directory, or give the following error. If you get this error, then the install path is not correct, or it wasn't typed properly.
The system cannot find the path specified.
If you get the error that "C:\program is not recognized..." then the command was missing the "cd" before it.
If it worked right, then the next line should read:
C:\Program Files\EA Games\Command and Conquer Generals Zero Hour\__Installer>
Then, copy and paste the following, but again, put it all in before pressing enter:
touchup.exe install -locale en_US -installPath "C:\Program Files\EA Games\Command and Conquer Generals Zero Hour" -autologging
If your locale is not en_US, you may have to change it, otherwise this should work. Then you just resume the download in the EA App and it will finish the installation.
If you're still getting errors, then maybe attach the screenshot of command prompt. But I hope this is clear.
