i removed planeshift since i was stupid enough to update it :oops: and i tried reinstalling it and i keep getting the following message:
Error opening file for writing
C:\Program Files\Planeshift CrystalBlue\psclient.exe
click to abort to stop the installation
or retry to try again or
ignore to skip this file
-
Restart your computer, make sure you uninstall your previous copy instead of overwriting, and then reinstall.

Download winrar and use it to decompress the file to the ps directory replace all existing files with the new ones when prompted and run your client again , treid this a couple of seconds a go and it has worked so far DON'T run the updater when it is suggested ,winrar is available free to try and easily downloaded , just google it.

Kalika:
When you copied the files _inside_ planeshift directory, did you get a message saying:
"Do you want to overwrite files?" or similar? If not, you did something not wrong.
So you've to:
1) Decompress the .zip file (you've already done that)
2) See where the files have been decompressed to.
3) Select those files
4) Having them selected, drag and drop them inside your Planeshift Crystal Blue directory.
If a message asking you to overwrite doesn't appear, you did something wrong.
Please try to state at which step you felt lost, and we all will try to help you as best as possible.

i overwrited them excep tfor when it said i needed a password...for those files i ahd them put in a different drive which i then put into a file and pasted them into my planeshift directory....
so i guess i felt lost aobut the unzpping where and how to do that and what to do about the password stuff
-
To solve the password stuff:
Use ctrl+alt+del
Select processes
select psclient.exe
End that process.
Try decompressing the .zip file again.
If it prompts for a password, cancel.
Reboot your system.
Try decompressing the .zip file again, it should not ask you for a password.
Edit: Supr... supress. Del... deltree/delete? :innocent:
-
uhm what button is supr?
and thank you for your help :D
-
Ctrl+alt+del ^^
-
its up and running now :D :D thank youse for your help *huggggggg*
