Try Restart system as did it to me but then works after restartand took around 8 minutes install system dependent.

That's because the folder name contains the letter "ö", just replace it with the letter o and it will be able to be installed.

I've the same problem. Installer will be closed a few moment after pressing install Botton on 0%.
Also I've no "ö", restart several times and test it with normal and adminsitrator run.

thank

i think it's the ö in the DSG folder see Picture
start DSG with Developer and Change the dir and change the ö to o before you Compress the Game
thats should help if not let me know

Oööö!
So I need to repeat 26 hours of compression after I change a character . . .

[KaktoR]

Normally this should not be the case unless the game name containing "ö" character isn't stored somewhere in compressed archives, Setup.dll or somewhere else.

Fun fact: ö is short form of o+e characters.

[wareck]

hello
I'm working on it, trying several way to compress.
I think the issue is in the file "texpack"

two time I had an infinite loop during compress/decompression
I'll try do go deeper in the analysis when I'll have some free time

No need to compress again, just delete the letters “ ö ”in the folder name after you extracted the rar file or you can try move conversion_output folder out the main gow folder.

There was no ö in any folder at the fist place. Anyway, it seems replacing "ö"s in DiskSpan or maybe the simpler compression method solved the problem. Thanks to Mausschieber for his compressor and installer and thanks to you all for your guides.
