I just download Soviet Corps and the setup program doesn't allow me to change the install folder like your past products. Is there a way to change the install folder location?

Same here. It want's to install to the C: drive, but I want to install it to another drive. No option I can find to change the install path as all other games allow.

Windows 7 here.

It's is a bug in the installer, Slitherine is well aware and fixing this asap.

For the time being you can solve this manually with this workaround:

Copying & replacing the files to the Base Game Directory on any drive you have your base game on, D:\ or ED:\, or whatever drive you have the game installed.

good luck or wait for the patch, either way sorry about that

As a temporarily and manual solution to start you playing:

1. Install soviet corps to the default: C:\Program Files...
2. Copy & replace those newly installed files form C:\Program Files... to your already existing Panzer Corps Directory (example: D:\games\panzercorps) (make a BackupCopy of the Directory before)
3. Prompt will ask you if folders with same name should be integrated and files replaced. Say Yes for all.
4. Run the Panzercorps.exe located in the D:\ Location
5. Defend the Motherland! Comrade Stalin does not care for any Installation problem excuses!
