Invalid Character

Post by A9L3E »

I bought 1TB outer hard disk and uninstalled and re-installed EHM to there. Then I ran EHM and it worked well. I patched the game and started to download logos, player cards etc.. Then I tried to open the game but it didn't work. I tried to uninstall and re-install and I even unlicensed my computer. When I had downloaded install file it said me to choose a language. It was starting installing when it said "Error 1234: The path Pelit ja ohjelmat contains an invalid character". I tried to install it to another computer but same success. And that "Pelit ja ohjelmat" is a folder in my hard disk.

Please help!

Error comes before folder selection.
