Default Re: latest upgrades don't run

Thank you for the response.

It's not a failure of where I updated the files too as it all goes to my own created directory c:\winspww2. I've always done it this way and it's always worked until this latest patch.

Here is some interesting info:
ALL I did was to re-run the win SPMBT 6.0 consolidated patch again (correct, I did NOT uninstall anything) and the game works. I re-run the 10.0b version patch and the game fails again with the warning. Clearly the 10.0b patch changes something causing the game to fail.
For win SPWW2. I reloaded the disk over my install (yes, again I did not uninstall anything) and the game works. I re-patch and the game fails. Again, clearly there is some change made in the latest patches that causes the game to fail to start.
So, conclusion, it's not where or how I downloaded or patched - it is the patch itself changing some permission file somehow.

Edit: I ran the compatibility test and it says that the games with the latest patches are incompatible. Does this have anything to do with the latest win 10 drivers?

To Don, there is no "more info" button on my warning so I can't select that.
