Do you use installer default settings?
I usually test the setup files on my Windows computer and what I do is download the setup file to the /Downloads folder, run it, use default settings and click on "Continue game" which never failed yet.
Is anybody else seeing this problem?

You know what I think it is? (It hit me as I was driving to work . . . nearly drove off the road . . . just kidding
) That question it asks about whether you want to install the game just for yourself or for everybody . . .
Usually, you want to install the game just for yourself and that is the default I believe. So, in that situation it installs the game folders in My Documents.
However, and I think this is what I did, if you select installing the game for everybody, it does so by installing the game folders in the data folder of C:\Program Files (x86)\Out of the Park Developments\OOTP Baseball 17, where the program resides. All users will have access to that folder.
So, if you originally installed your game folders in My Documents, and then choose "Everybody" when running the patch, that's what creates this error situation, I think. That's why you have to point the game back to My Documents.
Correct?
