Hello, people of The3rdAge.

-

I installed Patch 1.09 onto my computer and tried switching back to 1.06 so I could play RotWK. However, when I try to play this game, it gives me a crash error relating to Mordor Walls. So I tried removing Patch 1.09 entirely and that did nothing. Whenever I had this problem, I ended up needing to remove and reinstall all of Windows from scratch. Is there a way to fix this problem I am having that does not require me to start Windows all over again?

Check the Virtual Store. There might be .big files there. And normally, people just switch back to v1.06.

Thank you so much, Matt! I looked into the 'VirtualStore' folder and solved the problem.

Yep, I'm glad you got it working. For others wondering what the virtual store is - Google it please. It's a Windows 10 thibg and you'll find the folder in appdata/local.
