Errors to open 0ad

Pudim · September 1

I have been receiving errors when trying to open the game, this week I configured Google Drive and did a Windows update, I don't know if there is something wrong.

I've already tried running as administrator, disabling antivirus and firewall and removing it with revounistaller and installing it again, but the error persists.

As the installer isn't signed Windows refuses to open it; do you still get the chance to override that decision manually?

Did you install a newer version of 0AD than the previously installed one? In this case you might need to remove all old replays and savegames.

Do you happen to have an accent in your Windows account name ?

If so you need to install it somewhere else eg: C:\Games

I tested removing 0ad completely with revouninstaller, and installing it in the C:\0ad" folder, but the error persists.

First screen error:

Assertion failed: "0 && ("SHGetFolderPathW failed (see debug output)")"
Location: wutil.cpp:209 (GetFolderPath)

Call stack:

(error while dumping stack: Unknown error (-100400, 0xFFFFFFFFFFFE77D0))
errno = 0 (Unknown error (0, 0x0))
OS error = 2 (O sistema não pode encontrar o arquivo especificado.)

Then i click in Continue:

Function call failed: return value was 0 (No error reported here)
Location: file_system.cpp:157 (CreateDirectories)

Call stack:

007610D5


errno = 0 (No error reported here)
OS error = 123 (A sintaxe do nome do arquivo, do nome do diretório ou do rótulo do volume está incorreta.)

After errors, 0ad open, but i cant install mods, error appear again.

@Pudim Can you copy the full error message from that dialog box?

You might also delete or move the 0ad folder in C:\Users\gabri\Documents\My Games\0ad

Tried uninstall and delete My Games\0ad folder and reinstall 0ad, but errors keep showing.
