FAF deleted

Postby --- » 09 Nov 2013, 20:52

Hi guys,

earlier today I downloaded the FAF update and it all went fine. Later (20 min ago) I wanted to start FAF and once again I was shown the typical update screen. I was distracted and did not read it entirely but thought it's a typical update, thus, I pressed ok. However, after the "update" was completed, ALL my FAF files were gone :o I still can find FAF in the list of installed programmes (Windows 7), but I cannot find any files. My shortcut disappeared as well.
I tried to set my computer back to the time before the "update" was installed. The shortcut appeared again, however, it remained a dead link :(

What shall I do now?

Thanks in advance.

Ok, I will try that. Just wanted to make sure because I was not sure if I can get my old account/username back.
Also, I am sorry, I found some files (most folder are empty tho).

Will reinstall it now.

Thank you.


EDIT:
Worked just fine. Thank you again.

Thanks for the help and FAF!

I have the same situation. FAF 0.10-92 is source of this problem.

The faf.exe file is gone in the FA Forever folder after patching.
What is wrong Pilot?

I've found why, the MSI is updated. (if you had a problem, nothing must be done, it's just for people who didn't updated yet).
