Numbered Steps to Reproduce Problem:?

Code Snippet (if applicable) to Reproduce Problem:


Expected Results: Need this to be fixed.

Actual Results:

Does the problem occur:
Every time? Or how often? - Everytime
In other games? - Didn't work on DMU and one of the DBZ games
In other user accounts? - both my and MDupont's account
On other computers? - Just this one I am using.

When does the problem NOT occur? - It hasn't NOT occured.

Did the problem NOT occur in any earlier versions? If so, what was the last version that worked? (Visit http://www.byond.com/download/build to download old versions for testing.) - I it happened out of nowhere. I didn't update at all and it all of a sudden gave me that message.

Workarounds: I tried to reinstall multiple times, but to no avail and I couldn't find a BYOND folder in my Applications folder.

You must have updated if you are running version 450, since that just came out tonight.

From the error, it looks like you are running BYOND from a different directory it thinks it's installed in (eg-- the windows registry settings written on installation). Typically this happens when you try to install to Program directories without Administrator permissions.

I suggest that you do a full uninstall by first running the uninstaller, then searching for "BYOND" on your drive and deleting all supplementary folders (unless you have downloads that you want to keep-- you'd want to back that stuff up). Then reinstall BYOND into a directory that you have permissions to write to (if you are not Administrator this may just be a folder on your Desktop or something).

If you have further inquiries, please open up a topic in the BYOND Help forums at http://www.byond.com/help/forum. This does not appear to be a general issue with this release.
