Game patches

How do you open game patches. I click on the downloaded patch and it wont open. You have to pick a program. Any ideas?

Re: Game patches

What game are you trying to update. It should be an exe file.

Re: Game patches

I have always used Gameshadow here:

GameShadow.com - get the latest patch, trailer or demo for your games

Never done me any harm, and it lets you know iff patches are available for alot of games, and Star Wars Empire at War is among them along with the expansion if you have it.

But maybe you have got it sorted now, but if not you could always try it out

Re: Game patches

Some patches are in a compressed format, ZIP for example.
You need to uncompress some patches for them to work.
