"1628: Failed to install" when trying to install ET:QW.


(BioQuake) #1

Hello,

My friend is trying to install ET:QW on his laptop, and it keeps failing with the error message “1628: Failed to install”
This is very frustrating, as me and my friend want to play this game again, as we both love the game.
He’s trying to install it on a 64 bit, win 8 laptop, with an intel i5, and an nVidia GPU.

Does anyone know of a possible fix?

Kind regards,
BioQuake

Try to run the exe as administrator
