They create a self-extracting archive out of the game’s installation folder and the output is the game’s custom installer. Hope this helps anyone who runs into this error in the future.ĮelKat: I know this is an old thread, but I just found another solution to this problem and thought I would add it for anyone in the future who like me had this problem, searched and found this thread. They normally create a custom installer by installing the actual game on their computer and then compressing the installation folder of the game using an ordinary file compressor like WinRAR. To fix it, I went to my GOG Galaxy Folder, right clicked, open Properties, unchecked the box Read Only, waited about 4 minutes while it updated subfolders then, went to each game's folder (The Witcher 3 GoTY, Skid Row Gat Out of Hell, etc) and did the same thing (go to properties and uncheck Read Only, for each game).Īfter doing that I went back to Galaxy and was able to install new games, verify/repair old games, and download updates once again. It turns out (in my case) the error was caused by a Windows 10 update, that for some unknown reason, changed the security settings of all of my folders on the same harddrive where GOG Galaxt was installed, making the folder "Read Only" thus blocking Galaxy from being able to update already installed games or downloading new games. The solution they found didn't work for me, as I'm not using Avast so that was not what caused me to get the error.īeen trying to verify/repair my games all week, and was getting the install fail error finally fixed it and now all of my games are updating like normal, no more error here's what I did: I know this is an old thread, but I just found another solution to this problem and thought I would add it for anyone in the future who like me had this problem, searched and found this thread.
