Men of War Patch Taking up 100GB

JJMicromegas · #1 03-08-2010, 11:11 PM

Hello,

I was browsing through my programs today trying to save some harddrive space and I noticed that the biggest program was 'Patch 1.16.4 for Men of War' which was 100GB, I also have two other programs , one for Men of War at 3 GB and another for Red Tide.

I am wondering is this normal, or should I uninstall and re-install the patch, because 100GB seems excessive. Or is it just a display bug.

Make sure you downloaded it from a safe site. As for myself, I prefer to wait for the official patch.

Are you sure that is not 100 MB? Right click on the file and examine the properties for the size info...

It is definitely 100GB, I sorted the list by size just to make sure, I will post a screenshot tonight when I get home.

I think I will just uninstall and re-install again.

How long you were downloading it?
With my internet speed it will take weeks!

If it is 100Gb in size, then something is definately wrong, since the whole game isn´t much larger than 1.41Gb.

Here is the screenshot for the record, I uninstalled it and it didn't free up 100GB, so my guess is that is was just displaying incorrectly.

Ok, that is in the un-install panel, I thought you were referring to the actual patch EXE in Windows explorer. I have never actually noticed sizes listed for programs installed there, but would also assume it probably is just a mistake.
