Hey,

None of these trainers are allowing me to unzip them. I get an error that says that the file is invalid. It might just be me but I have had no problems downloading other trainers lately. If you could look into this, I would really appreciate it.

Thanks,

Keep trying, it may be the trainers were corrupt when you downloaded them.

Also make sure whatever you are using to unzip the files is up to date.

disable/uninstall all AV, firewall and other security software before downloading.

I am fairly certain it has nothing to do with me. I have updated 7-zip to the newest beta version, I turned off all of my firewall/AV items, and I tried downloading and opening the file on a different computer and I get the same error. I do not have trouble downloading any other trainers. Just this one...

I see no recent downloads from you on this file. If you're not going to follow the advice given, then don't complain when things don't work.

You know that is very odd that you see no downloads from me. I can go look in my downloads folder and count the 12 times I have tried to download this file (all give the invalid file error), and the 3 times I tried to download it on a different computer. I did follow your instructions but unfortunately they do not seem to work. The old version of the trainer downloads correctly but I am updated to 1.02 so the 1.01 does me no good. So, to clarify it is the 1.02 trainer non steam version that I am having problems with. I also tried downloading the steam version 1.02 just to see if I got the error and I also get it from that one too.

Still no downloads from you since last Wednesday. Clear your cache, temp files, etc. Disable/uninstall all AV, firewall and other security software then go through the complete download process again.

I have tried to also download the Mass Effect 2 trainer today and am having the same problem. Whereas Cheathappens normally has a desktop icon for their individual trainers, either the Cheathappens symbol or game symbol, the standard generic Windows symbol is appearing. This is not a problem that would be on either of our PCs I'm guessing, as I only just got the Mass Effect (1) trainer a couple of days ago to play through that game without any problems.

The only other trainer that I have had this problem with was for C&C: Tiberium Wars. Is it possible that the file you guys have on store may also be corrupt?

On a side note, with or without various firewalls and anti-virus programs, these ones that do come up as the first poster suggested stating "Cannot find exe. You may not have correct permissions" are flagged as virus programs **If the user has an A-Virus like AVG, but I've found AVG to be particularly leanient with the Cheathappens with the way I've set it up. (By the way I am not running this program at the moment, nor a firewall, so neither of these shall be part of the problem of not getting the ME2 trainer to work)

Now my speel is over, I'm off to play ME2 and see how often I die
