Easygoing Eyebeast Trenton. Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 As maybe one or two of you might know, I put my Exile III in the recycle bin to free up memory for the new game. However, when it did nothing, I relized i just wasted my money. I have no Idea who I message. What do I do to get my game back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk nikki. Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 Jeff (or whoever) has set up a dedicated webpage to help with just this problem here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Alorael at Large Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 But first, you should try downloading the game again and see if it's still registered. You need a copy anyway to have a registration code, but depending on where the registration preferences are stored you may not have deleted that particular part of E3. —Alorael, who would email support@spiderwebsoftware.com if the form doesn't account for one person buying the game for another. You can work it out. Jeff's excellent about restoring lost keys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast Trenton. Posted May 1, 2012 Author Share Posted May 1, 2012 I tried downloading it, and all it brought up was a big black box. The kind you type commands in. It asked me if I wanted to overwrite 20 different things seperately. I tried twice, One for all yes, and one for all no. Nothing. No downloading. So I go to the search function under start, type in EXILE III, and nothing but these three things. Exile III-Ruined World Type:File Folder. Exile III Help and Order Form Type:Shortcut Remove Exile III Type:Shortcut So, what do I do now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall Harehunter Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 In E1-E3, the registration is named Ex1misc.dat, Ex2misc.dat and Ex3misc.dat. This file lives in the directory where you installed the game. I have this backed up in several places (paranoia is a virtue to a DBA). If you deleted the directory and emptied the recycle bin, and you have no backup, your only recourse is to download a fresh copy, and contact Jeff to get it re-registered. Let me know if you need any help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast Trenton. Posted May 5, 2012 Author Share Posted May 5, 2012 As I said above, thats all that appears, I think I deleted it, and it won't let me download a new copy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rotghroth Rhapsody Mysterious Man Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 Open the recycle bin, find Exile III... right click on it with your mouse. Click "Restore". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall A less presumptuous name. Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 You mentioned earlier that your computer was pretty much out of hard disk space. Perhaps that is why you can't download a new copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast Trenton. Posted May 5, 2012 Author Share Posted May 5, 2012 Yes, but my free space is 200 some. The newest game only requires 400. The games needed more space as they got newer. Exile 3 is a very old time spidweb game, and should take no more than like, 50 right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 You need space for the downloaded compress file and the expanded game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
