Error reading npcleanup.vbs

[*RuinOfTheDead]

I played QL a while ago, and it got boring.

And I deleted the files without actually un-installing the plugin.

Now when I try to re install, it says "Error reading from file: C:\Documents and settings\all users\application data\id software\quakelive\npcleanup.vbs. Verify that the file exists and that you can access it."

How can I get past this?

I take it that, by looking at the folder tree you posted, you are running XP.

Do this:

1.) Make a folder called C:\temp

2.) Make another folder inside of C:\temp called 'install' e.g.: now you would have C:\temp\install

3.) Save QuakeLive.msi from the QLive site (or a copy from your computer if you saved it rather than installing it direct) to C:\temp

4.) Close your browser

4.) Go to start menu --> Run --> type in: 'cmd'

5.) copy and paste this, without the quotes: "msiexec /a C:\temp\QuakeLiveNP.msi /qb TARGETDIR=C:\temp\install"

6.) Now you should have a bunch of files in C:\temp\install

7.) Copy the following files:
npcleanup.vbs
npquakezero.dll
pbsvc.exe

to: C:\Documents and settings\all users\application data\id software\quakelive

8.) Run npcleanup.vbs from C:\ProgramData\id Software\QuakeLive

9.) Restart your browser and enjoy

I love you.

That helped.


I am back in the game, baby!

Always happy to try and help. Even happier when my effort is a success.
Enjoy QL... again.

If this isn't immortalized in one of the stickies it should be. Great info!

Thank you for the compliment.

I posted a seperate thread with this routine in a bit better detail here:

Thanks.

Just follow what Lofra posted here. It's easy. Or you have another OS?
