Install help.

I bought a new PC about a year ago and I've been trying to install this game on and off ever since. I always get the same error, to install disc2. Slitherine tech support tried to help me for a long time, but nothing worked so I gave up until I tried again today. Same error. There's a lot of computer savvy people, so I thought I'd possibly get some ideas posting this here. All my other Matrix/Slitherine games gave installed without any problems. I now have Windows 11.
Thanks.

This is really weird indeed. So you contacted support@slitherine.co.uk and they found no answer?

As a workaround, if you bought it at Slitherine, you are provided with a Steam key, and the installation method they use will be different.

Thank you for your quick response. However, I'm not a Steam user. I'll just keep playing Empires which is a great game. It appears you're working on an update for it. I'm really looking forward for that.

The error is almost always because the installer didn't download correctly.

Thanks,
How can I get the installer to download correctly? I've downloaded it around 10 times over the last year.
