It has stopped Installing on the file: Weapons_client.zip
Please help, Thanks! And Remember, Keep it pg-13. (Trollface)

having the same problem as above...

I am new to pc gaming and this is literally the first game install before I get full BF series. I finished the DL and it prompted me to open when finished. I clicked 'yes' and nothing popped up. Any help is appreciated.

C:/Program Files/EA Games/BattlefieldPlay4Free/tempPatch/patched/mods/main/Objects/Items_client.zip
To:
C:/Program Files/EA games/BattlefieldPlay4Free/mods/main/Objects/Items_client.zip
If you have any of these files open, please close them an retry.
But i DON'T have any of those files open i even restarted my laptop so nothing was open except the download thing. I use Windows Vista. Help would be appreciated.

Might be because:

1. You don't have enough space on that particular drive.
2. NTFS folder/file permission is screwing with you.
3. Sometimes my windows asks me an extra time for permission to delete/rename/over write something in the program files directory (started with Win Vista, Win 7 also has the same extra protection I think).

Try installing the game to another drive (e.g. D:\Games) with enough space, with standard NTFS permissions and without extra Windows restrictions.
