but not D:\Загрузки\GOG\ and no spaces or special symbols. Two reasons.įirst, non-latin path, on non-English OS, although it more critical for game installation path also applied for download files:Įg D:\Downloads\GOG\heroes_3_complete\. Probably that because of installer location path. (for exe file look at digital sign valid status). If you've partitioned your drive then D: (or whatever) \GoG Games would be even better. My downloads (installers etc) are into a C:\GoGames from where I install to C:\GoG Games. One tip I've had from these forums: steer clear of C:\Program Files and C:\Program Files (x86). Then, after downloading everything, went into that folder with Windows Explorer to left-click the. to download into my chosen folder (a new one). PS I RIGHT-clicked the offline installer links on my GoG games page and selected Save Link As. On clicking to confirm this, it installed in the background, but I had to cancel HoMM3 and start it again and the easy (only?) way to do this was using the Windows key to access the power button and force a Windows restart.

Overlaying that was a Windows overlay prompting me to get DirectPlay feature.

One problem - the screen froze on me when I started the game, with a colored background and a cursor. Now I've installed - offline, I do not use Galaxy - GoG's HoMM3 (without 4) onto my new laptop, Win 11, and copied over my saved games. I had HoMM3, from the 3-and-4-complete retail CD, installed on my old desktop (Win 7 originally, now 10).
