"Cannot install 2d.ico"	revolce	01/20/2009 - 01:37
I just barely opened my sealed copy of World of Goo. Popped in the CD excited to play. Follow the on-screen instructions and I get an error that says "Cannot install 2d.ico" I'm confused why this has happened.. I have all the system requirements. Can anyone tell me how to fix this? I'm running Vista if that helps

That's somewhat odd, because a .ico file is the 'icon' for your game/program. In essence if you have anything installed you'll have a .ico for it. My suggestion would be to make sure you are installing it on an administrative account. Other then that, not entirely sure what could be the problem.

Turns out it was the admin account thing. Wonder why the icon file couldn't be installed... :\

[quote author=revolce link=topic=1330.msg8920#msg8920 date=1232491027] Turns out it was the admin account thing. Wonder why the icon file couldn't be installed... :\ Icons are sometimes put in registry files and other system based files. This would prevent the instillation. Funny thing vista is :)
