Patch up to 1.17.5.0 - Steam vers?

[dagvon]

The old, and easy trick that used to work (for 1.16.4) - ie creating a men of war folder, installing patches, then copying the patch data to steamapps / common / ) does not work anymore since the 1.17.5 installer doesn't recognize a valid MOW install - and will not extract any files, since it now fails to recognize the men on war folder you just created in C:

Perhaps there's a new solution, anyone ?

Thanks
