How can I start ?

Game won't run. Keeps crashing. Hopefully we won't get any posts here, but if we do, we'll try to help you out. You can also post any bugs that you find here. IMPORTANT: Don't post mod related problems here!

Thanks for the reply, i already uninstall the game but it's look like that somewhere they are still something because the pacher 1,5 remember my activation Code and it's still write : "You are already up-to-date" even if i deleted all files and the folder...
It could be the registry keys. If on Windows 7, Go to Start, type in Regedit. Then navigate to:

local machine
software
then wow64 if you're on windows 7
norbsoftdev
sowgb

Delete the entire norbsoftdev key. Then run the 1.5 installer again.

Right click on the Norbsoft folder itself and then select the 'Delete' menu item. This will remove the entire thing.

Please try this. Start up the regedit.exe program. Scroll up a bit until you find the folder for Matrix Games. Open that folder and there you should see folders for each SOW game you have installed. Delete those entire folders. Exit the regedit.exe program and then directly delete the SOW program folder.

At this point you should be in the situation of doing a new install. That part you already know how to do.

Four entries up from Norbsoft on the screenshot you posted.
