Also manually search the registry for Blizzard or Diablo to get rid of all of the keys that the registry cleaner might leave behind.

2 Install problem Discussion in 'Software' started by xStashYx, Feb 4, 2009. xStashYx Private E-2 When i try and install it after i accept the agreement thing it says can not install uninstall data file. installation aborted. Can i fix this?? http://forums.majorgeeks.com/index.php?threads/diablo-2-install-problem.181490/ xStashYx, Feb 4, 2009 #1 DOA MG's Loki Is this a second or more attempt? You may http://www.thehelper.net/threads/need-help-cant-install-diablo-2-or-starcraft.375/ have to delete the existing D2 directory and clean your registry. This seems to be a file you cannot write over while doing a re-install. This happens if you uninstall D2 and do not delete all its data files. DOA, Feb 5, 2009 #2 xStashYx Private E-2 I use to play it ages ago and when i uninstalled it i cant remember if i clicked uninstall diablo 2 or if i deleted all the files but ive used the search thing on my computer to look for all diablo files and i cant find any more got any ideas where they would be or be hidden?? xStashYx, Feb 6, 2009 #3 xStashYx Private E-2 Someone please reply and help xStashYx, Feb 11, 2009 #4 Pencheff Private E-2 Check Add/Remove programs in Control Panel to see if it's there. Also go to start->run->regedit and using it's search function, try to diablo 2 error search for it. Also note where you are installing it, if the folder you try to install in isn't read only, if you have administrative rights when you try installing and check your CDs if they have scratches on them. Pencheff, Feb 17, 2009 #5 necro61 Specialist Hi an old diablo2'er myself where my sudo stems from...so thought I'd drop 10cents in. Anyways you may want to check your registry - start > run > regedit > hit F3 for find and type in DiabloII. Also ensure when using the "search thing" that you are searching all drives, although if I recall the default install path is C:\ (perhaps) documents and settings. When using search, at the top of the search panel is the view option or there abouts find and select the option to show hidden files and folders..you may have small "hidden files" hidding somewhere - maybe two files? Thinking i had an issue like this a few years back..sorry cant offer any more info except maybe the diablo2 unoffical forum - google it some helpful people over there.:wave necro61, Mar 16, 2009 #6 (You must log in or sign up to reply here.)

Schmidt Guest Last night i tried to install diablo 2, i had just bought it. I get the message "Cannot save uninstall data file. Installation aborted." So i went to Blizzard Tech, their answer says to delete the DIIunin.dat DIIunin.exe DIIunin The problem is that these r the files that i cant install. The same thing happened after my starcraft crashed today while i was playin on b.net. I uninstalled then went to reinstall and right B4 it was finished it said "Unable to install SCunin.exe!!! I have windows XP on this computer. Someone PLZ help me!! Joe Schmidt, Nov 24, 2001 #1 Rapmaster Administrator Staff Member Is this Windows XP Professional? if so, do you have Administrator permississions on the computer? Rapmaster, Nov 24, 2001 #2 Schmidt Guest No, I have home edition. And i am not administrator, but when i installed starcraft when i first got comp, i wasn't administrator and i had no problem installin................. Schmidt, Nov 24, 2001 #3 Rapmaster Administrator Staff Member if its the home edition then everyone is an "administrator" (it doesn't have the same security features as the professional edition). I mention this because you would need administrative access to install software. the files you need to delete are located in your Windows directory. Is that where you looked for them? also make sure that your Windows directory is not set to "read only" (right-click on it in Explorer and choose Properties) Rapmaster, Nov 24, 2001 #4 Schmidt Guest They are not on Read only I made sure that the "read-only" was not on, aso i performed a search for these files. This is making me pretty mad. Thns
