Welcome, @knightbaby85.  I also received the private message you sent with your request for help.

 

To confirm, which Operating System are you on?   Are you on Windows, mac, Linux?  

Which Launcher did you download?  Is it Tequila?  It would look a little something like this:

 

If you are using Tequila, and you click on "Options" you should see a window that looks a little something like this:

 

Take note to check what you "Install Path" is, and then double-check in your file browser to ensure that you have Read/Write permissions for that folder.  

If not, I recommend making a new folder somewhere else on your hard drive, and then redirecting Tequila to that folder using the "Browse" button in the displayed window of the above screenshot.

 

 

The more details you can give (short of revealing any personal information about your computer), the better we'll be able to help troubleshoot your issues.

thanks so much. I'm on windows 10 and I did download tequila.  when it downloaded... the homecoming 64 was highlighted. if it helps I did install the two game disk from back in the day. I still have them in mint condition.

The game discs are regrettably no real help nowadays in regard to playing the game.  Pretty much anything left on those discs that is still relevant to the modern game is so tiny that you probably wouldn't notice a different between the download times with or without them pre-installed.

 

Have you had any luck with changing the Install Path?  When the Installation progress bar is full and the word "Done..." shows up underneath it, can you double-click on the Homecoming (32-Bit) and/or the Homecoming (64-Bit) entries from the list?  What happens when you do?
