My initial suggestion would be to run your browser of choice as administrator... Wink

If you need help on doing this and or if this doesn't work let me know!

Maybe try this...

Quote:If you "uninstalled" the game by deleting the game folder, you got into the trouble I mentioned above. You now need to manually delete the Registry values, in order to install the game again.

1. Press [WINDOWSKEY] + [R], the "Run..." dialog will open
2. Type regedit and press [RETURN] or click on OK
3. Inside the "Registry Editor", navigate to the appropriate "folder", according to your OS's architecture:
For 32bit Windows:

Code:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Electronic Arts\EA Games\Battlefield Play4Free

For 64bit Windows:

Code:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Electronic Arts\EA Games\Battlefield Play4Free

4. Delete the Battlefield Play4Free "folder".
5. Try to install again. If it doesn't work, you need to restart your PC, since some registry changes are only applied after a restart

If you think this might be too difficult for you, or when you can't find that "folder", try this: http://battlefield.play4free.com/en/forum/showthread.php?tid=34577&pid=325455#pid325455

However, If your thinking of reinstalling your OS than I suggest at least as a last ditch effort you try with a new user account... Wink
