Every time I go to install the Warchiefs Expansion for AOE 3 I keep getting the following: "Warchiefs cannot install because Age of Empires 3 is not installed for allusers or this user on this computer."
I have already installed the base game and I have tried every other fix for it I can find, but I don't have an allusers folder.
I'm running Windows 10 on an ASUS ROG Gaming Laptop.
Please help, all help is appreciated.
*EDIT* Problem has been solved. A friend of mine who was having the same problem linked me to an installation guide for all three games, including patch files. That helped fix the problem completely. I had only been looking at Warchief Installation Errors/Problems, so I hadn't found this at first. Thanks to everyone who responded and offered their suggestions. :)
I'll link to the thread if anyone else has this problem: http://forum.agecommunity.com/forums/thread/960099.aspx

Yeah, I've had this copy for like, 3 years. I've been able to install it using the fixes before, but for some reason it just won't work this time.

Re: Warchiefs Installation Problems
If you had this game in steam, you wouldn't have this problem.
Anyways, I think you need to do something in the registry.

Have you tried digging through old threads at AgeComm? There are about a million on this problem there:

Yeah, that was the first thing I did. This isn't the first time I've had this problem with this game, but this is the first time that none of the fixes I find work.

Yeah, but I got the base game and both expansions as CDs for a birthday gift, and I can't really afford to buy it off steam right now.
Where in the registry might I have to look to fix this problem? I've already tried adding in a folder for Microsoft Games/Age of Empires III to my C:/ProgramFiles directory, and even to a few other places that the threads I have been looking at have stated will work, but so far no dice.
