Hotfix Patch Issue

Trying to install the 'Hotfix' patch per the Membership download with zero success.:(
I get this instead;

'Failed to open descriptor file
../../../eddieballgame/PanzerCorps2.uproject'

I will add, when downloading again (after removing the original download), it takes only 1 sec yet still shows a full download & extracts to over 300 mbs.
My internet is not that fast. :)
Is anyone else having this issue...I have never encountered anything like this for any game.
BTW, the 'PanzerCorps2.uproject' file exists, I even tried copying it to the main dir.
The Steam version updates fine.
Thank you.

I have made the 'devs' & the Slitherine folks aware of this.
It is the weekend, so maybe next week this issue can be addressed.

This has not been properly explained, but this hotfix is not an installer. It's a fixed game EXE. You need to manually unpack it into PanzerCorps2/Binaries/Win64 subfolder in your game's installation folder. Sorry for confusion. On the positive side, it's a very small and easy to download package, unlike "proper" patches. :)

A walk through on how to place hot fix into binary file for those of us no ultra savvy would be of help thanks
Having continuous freeze or drop out using any of the Random or specialist scenarios provided in Field Marshall edition campaigns however work fine already have the latest patch installed any ideas Thanks (using an ASUS full Tuff gaming PC so more than enough run-operating power available)

I thought I'd installed the hotfix ok but the splash screen still says v 1.1.0, is that normal?
