Ryde93 Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 I purchased WSM and installed it via stream...but it didn't create a folder in my C: drives program files...so i could only launch it using steam. Is there a way to install it to my C drive? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Ritchie Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 C:\Program Files\Steam\Steamapps\Common\Football Manager 2009 If you create a shortcut to fm.exe on your desktop you don't need to run Steam to start the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryde93 Posted December 23, 2008 Author Share Posted December 23, 2008 ahh, i created a shortcut from steam, so i guess that'd be why...guess its time to re-install again Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Ritchie Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 You shouldn't need to reinstall to do that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryde93 Posted December 23, 2008 Author Share Posted December 23, 2008 yeah, but stupid me thought that there was a different way to install it...wasn't the best idea clearly haha...so then should i use the Activator located in C:\Program Files\Steam\Steamapps\Common\Football Manager 2009 to activate it? or the activation option in steam?

Chris Ritchie Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 I'd activate it using Steam. I really don't think you need a reinstall here. You just have to create a shortcut to your fm.exe (in the aforementioned folder) and drag it to your desktop. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryde93 Posted December 23, 2008 Author Share Posted December 23, 2008 it shouldnt be. like i copied it to my clipboard, and pasted it. Odd Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Ritchie Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Perhaps raise a support ticket with Steam? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryde93 Posted December 23, 2008 Author Share Posted December 23, 2008 and what exactly is that? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Ritchie Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 It's sending them a message telling them you need help. Although judging by what I've heard about their response times, you might be better off just activating with Uniloc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryde93 Posted December 23, 2008 Author Share Posted December 23, 2008 so using the non-steam platform method? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryde93 Posted December 23, 2008 Author Share Posted December 23, 2008 like im reading stuff..and like when it is installing, i don't even get the option to activate, let alone activate online or by phone ooptions Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mimland Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 What happens when you just try and start the game. I didn't have to reactivate when I installed it the second time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryde93 Posted December 23, 2008 Author Share Posted December 23, 2008 im installing the game. i used the fix v3 thing, and it says it was successful so i guess it worked? like the first time i installed it i ran it and i had a steam box stating that i may need to enter the cd key in the bottom right corner, but other than that there was no activation required Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryde93 Posted December 23, 2008 Author Share Posted December 23, 2008 thanks for all the help guys, mainly chris with your quick responses. its installed again, and as stated in my previous post, i believe i am activated. im not sure how to know for sure other than the successful message that i had recieved. thank you so much, i am grateful Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
