Hi! I just finished the initial game download, and when I try to run it I get a note pad saying
[autorun]
open=Install.exe
icon=icon.ico
I really want to try playing =( anyone have any idea of how I can fix?

Try to find the install.exe file on the download folder right-click run as administrator.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

I've tried downloading the game several times, but each time I do and start up the client it says "Connection Error" and goes on about how I connect to the servers and the PMB.exe isn't allowed to go through the firewall..
So I've tried looking up on google, watched some tutorials on youtube but still can't seem to find out how to allow the game to play. I have the pando media, PMB.exe and the pwi client allowed through the firewall, yet it still doesn't work.
If you can help me, please post and answer to I can't finally enjoy the game, and end the endless hours of having to uninstall and reinstall..0 -

Follow this to the letter and your problems will be solved.SylenThunder - Sanctuary wrote: »...
1. Download and install torrent software. (I recommend utorrent.)
2. Click on the "Download Torrent" link on the Downloads page.
3. Once the download is finished, go to the directory your completed downloads are in and you will see a file named "PWI_v676_Installer.rar".
This is a compressed file. you will need something to unpack it. (I use ALZip)
If you right-click on the file, there should be an option to "Extract to 'PWI_v676_Installer\'". Click that and it will unpack the file into a directory with the same name as the file.
4. Temporarily disable the active scan for your antivirus software.
5. Once the file is done unpacking, navigate to that folder. (Hint: It should be "utorrent\Downloads\PWI_v676_Installer".
6. In this folder there is a file called "install.exe". Run it. (If you have Vista or newer, right-click and choose "Run as Administrator.)
7. Follow the directions to install the client.
8. After the client is done installing, add the directory where it installed to the exceptions list for your antivirus software. (The default folder location is "C:\Perfect World Entertainment\Perfect World International")
9. Launch the client using the icon that was placed on your desktop during the install and let it update.
8b. Launch the client and then close it before it updates, and then download the manual patches needed to bring the client up to date and install them. (Manual method is about 80% faster than automatic.)
10. Play
Read step 1 carefully. >.<Take the time to look for your answer before you post like an idiot.

Don't forget to fix your antivirus before you update the files and try to play.Take the time to look for your answer before you post like an idiot.
