Try to change CheckMD5=Y entry to CheckMD5=N in setup.ini

If it still doesn't work, the cabs are damaged

I do not know why it does not extract the file frearc automatically!

Do you have a bad previous installation?

open regedit and then delete the key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ubisoft\Prince of Persia - The Forgotten Sands

delete the following folder:
Program Files\InstallShield Installation Information\EAEAAF8C-8E86-4CAC-AC08-1A33EDCA34AC

and retry

I think I'll compress it again, who knows if it's not a bug!
if it fails again, the way I do it manually to decompress the file frearc!
you have more suggestions of what can be?

Try this:

1) Extract & overwrite POP_TFS.7z contents to DVD's root

2) Delete IS.exe

3) Convert archive to SFX and rename it to POP_TFS_arc.exe

it worked now!
was because I had put the option make.exe,
I then compress it again without this option and it worked!
Thank you for everything

Sorry to bump this old thread, but could somebody please tell me where is my ARC file in Windows Explorer ?
http://img341.imageshack.us/img341/5132/whereisit.jpg

How can I move it ?

It is the first time this has ever happened to me, but it was also the first time I tried to do it on Windows 7.

Do I have to do it again ? I would think that it would work better on desktop.

I have tried to see hidden files, but its just not there ...

I recommend that you use a proper file manager like FAR Manager or Total Commander; those programs don't take the user for stupid.

Phairero

First off NEVER have the file your creating in the same folder where your compressing with freearc. Put it in the root of the drive, or on another harddrive partition.

Phairero

11-03-2012 03:24

Whoops, I'll try to remember that tip.
By the way, do I need freearc to install this game then, too ?
I haven't needed it so far when I've had to used freearc, but then I had to create .exe file, not .arc file and I don't know how Windows will handle it.
