I can't install the newest version of CE. Every time I run the setup, it starts and a few seconds later it closes itself, every time. If I use the no setup.rar, I can't get my computer to recognize the .exe as a default program for when I open up tables. When I manually load a table on the program, it won't let me expand any option when I click on the squares. As if I didn't have a process selected, even if I have the correct game and patch selected. I have already verified I got it from the main website. In the digital signature it says Cheat Engine in the name of the signer, twice, and in the digest algorithm it says sha1 for one, and sha256 for the other.

I should say that I have had no problems with 6.5 or earlier. The only time I have had this problem is with the 6.6 installer.

Run ceregreset.exe, then run CE 6.6 installer (not the noinstaller option). Be sure to deselect ad offerings. Be sure that no 3rd-party programs are interfering with the install.

That didn't seem to do anything. Installer still closing itself.

If you are certain that no other, 3rd-party software is interfering, and you're certain that you're running an official copy from the CE website that isn't corrupted in any way (the download is complete), then maybe provide more details regarding your OS and someone else might be able to help.

I don't think its my anti-virus because I have tried disabling it before downloading and attempting to install CE. Also my OS is Windows 7.

Your AV could still be interfering, depending on what you're running. Also, other, 3rd-party software could be interfering, not just AV software. I assume you have admin privileges and have tried running the installer as admin?

You should not be experiencing any issues with that setup, so the problem is definitely on your end. Try uninstalling all instances of CE and try again by running as admin.

I have been using AVG, but after having issues with it, finally got a different anti-virus. Tried running the installer again and same thing happened as before, except this time right after it was closed, this anti-virus popped up saying threat blocked and leading to a file in my temp, ns035282f7\73b3135b_stp\setup.exe

Is this in any way related? Even if I close out of the anti-virus, the installer still closes itself.

I cannot know what is happening with your computer. You need to figure out a way to completely disable or remove whatever is interfering. Most AV software is equivalent to malware, these days.

This folder: ns035282f7\73b3135b_stp\

is created by module appended into CE installer. It is a module for Inno Setup that allows the package to include an ad revenue.


So, disable antyvirus, disable other monitoring programs. Install CE, be sure to deselect ad offerings (read this post). Enable AV and other monitoring programs.

So I booted my computer in safe mode and it installed just fine finally. I don't know what on my computer was blocking the 6.6 installer, nor why it wasn't blocking the 6.5 installer.

Could have been a newly-installed program that you weren't aware of, or, one of your existing programs received an update, post the 6.5 install.

Except it wasn't blocking the 6.5 installer. When I first had issues with the 6.6 installer, I tried reinstalling 6.5 just to see if it would work and I had no problems, even redownloaded the 6.5 installer to see if maybe it would be blocked for being a new exe file.

There are other, valid possibilities, but I can only speculate.
