Vindows Vista issues......

When installing Hyperlobby you must right click for administrators rights.

Also a common problem is Vista will not allow Hyperlobby
to access the 1946 il2fb.exe from the program files folder.

I run 1946 from Vista with no problems.

The trick was to copy the game to a new folder in the C:\ drive root directory.

In my case the path for 1946 in Vista looks like this.

"C:\Ubisoft\IL-2 Sturmovik 1946\il2fb.exe"

Not everyone has this problem, some do.

I hope this helps.

This needs to be made into a sticky.

I don't have vista and im having the same problem i can't get the dratted thing to recognize the installation folder C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\IL-2 Sturmovik 1946.

And iv tryed puting the folder in C: But it still does not work. And the hyperloby scanner does not identify it Ether.

It like the hyper loby program just does not know what the File looks like or some thing.

I Also have The 4.08 patch for 1946. Hyperloby 3.9.111.

So every thing checks out Why's it not working?.

Are you logging into the Forgotten Battles room when you do the search?

Hyper Lobby default starts in the Jane's WWII fighters room with a fresh install.

If you do a search from the wrong room the .exe will not be found.

Also Hyper Lobby will NOT execute the path to a game from the wrong room.
