There are several ways to fix errors when installing the game. First of all, you should find the cause of the error and then fix it with technical recommendations. The reasons may vary. From past incorrect deletions to conflicts with the operating system version.
Instructions
Step 1
The main source of problems during game installation is software incompatibility or outdated drivers. Unfortunately, not all games are equipped with the correct warning notes about the possible causes of the problem. In particular, fresh foreign versions very often simply refuse to install or run for an unknown reason or incorrect (for example, that the game is supposedly already installed).
Step 2
The problem of incompatibility is fixed, as a rule, by installing and updating the software. If Windows XP is installed, then for the correct operation of some modern games, it is necessary to update to Service Pack 3. You should also update the drivers for the video card and install the latest version of DirectX.
Step 3
However, a conflict may arise over the version of the game. It is likely that fans have noticed such a mistake a long time ago and found a remedy. Usually such a tool is some kind of add-on, patch, etc. You should look for such things on sites dedicated to the game or on large portals, where there are quite a lot of various kinds of add-ons (for example, https://www.playground.ru). As a rule, detailed instructions are attached to the solution
Step 4
A conflict may arise due to the fact that the game was previously installed on the computer, but then incorrectly removed or the installation was interrupted in the process. It is likely that it was registered in the registry and that some files were saved in the system. Therefore, the system thinks that the game is installed. If no decisions were made (that is, some part of the files were not manually deleted), you can try to search for the game in the "Add or remove programs". It is located at: Start - Control Panel - Add or Remove Programs. There you should look for a game. If it is located there, then it must be uninstalled. If it is not there, then you should clean the system from unnecessary files using special utilities (for example, CCleaner). After such a cleaning of the system, unnecessary files must be deleted and, accordingly, the game should be installed.
