I've downloaded multiple versions from other uploaders and they all have the same error window. Any idea what the issue is? I can't find anything on these forums.

Not sure this belongs into site support, but it looks to me that it has problems with the path and file name, specifically the Japanese characters in it.

Is your system locale set to Japanese?

Alternatively you could try running it via Locale Emulator. I have had some success with that in cases where the system locale alone wouldn't let me run the game.

Hello, I've moved this thread to correct category. This looks like you set wrong locale, if you don't want to set to Japanese Locale, use Locale Emulator and try again.

Thanks, I could not figure out where to put this post at the time. Now I know there are sub threads.

Thanks the local emulator worked
