Why do you need a DL version when everything runs smoothly on the disk version:

When I run setup.exe I get the error "This app can't run on your PC"
Running in compatibility mode does not resolve the issue.

Even if I copy it directly to HDD without using setup.exe and apply the patch or crack, I still get the error (lc2.m not found).

pc.m has been updated and now VN runs smoothly on windows 10 x64.
The cause of your error with setup.exe startup look for in your antivirus application.
Because setup.exe is 32 bit, not 16 bit (so that your operating system can't run it).

I got this VN running yesterday on windows 10 22h2 x64.

This issue has been going on for months and still not resolved, so I requested a DL version.

I was looking for a solution to run this VN from 2022 (Nov 6, 2022 had to publish a solution that required windows XP SP3 - https://www.anime-sharing.com/threa...ndtrack-cd-maxi-cd-update-1-03-crack.1240300/).

Yesterday found a solution under windows 10 x64.

The cause of exe behavior was described to you by me (tip: trust microsoft antivirus more)

 

[nanasakinanaya]

Hmm. I checked again, and the CD version doesn't work on my system.
There is no antivirus software installed and Windows Defender real-time protection is disabled.

The same problem occurred with "Hanamaru!", but in that case I copied it directly to the HDD and rewrote the registry, and it started up.
------------------------
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\TinkerBell\hanamaru]
@="D:\\はなマルッ！"
------------------------

If you are able to install it, you may be able to start it if you send me the registry information (.reg).

Especially for you I installed on Windows XP and copied the registry (Regedit versions XP and 10 are the same) and everything works without redoing.

If you are not working because of the registry, sorry it is your fault as a user of your operating system (you are responsible for the cleanliness of the registry).

Thank you. I tried it, but it didn't work.
When I run ricotte.exe, it displays a white screen with an error message and closes.

Since setup.exe cannot be executed due to an error, I wanted to start the game from ricotte.exe that I copied directly to the HDD without using setup.exe, so I needed the registry information.
If do not use setup.exe, the registry information will be empty.
In my collection of over 1000 games, there are three games that won't start, and this game is one of them, so it's been bothering me for a long time.

The CD version may not work due to a problem with my environment.
I was able to start all the games on FANZA GAME that support Windows 10, so I'll patiently wait for someone who has the FANZA GAME version to upload it.

Expect + and independently DRM hack in VN (hackers will charge you at least 10.000-20.000 dollars for breaking the protection (because the protection of the store is based on their server equipment)).

The usual substitution of DL files for the disk version doesn't always work.

I have about 7000 VNs and not a single case like this (+ a bunch of different options to run old apps).

If on Ryzen 7950 and Nvidia 4090 VN all Work, the problems are no longer in the hardware - but in not keeping a good eye on the operating system (the portable version you have in Conversations).

If the portable version won't work for you either = time to reinstall your operating system.

 

[nanasakinanaya]

Thank you!!! I was able to get it to work with the portable version.

I don't know why it's running so I'd like to compare the file differences to find out more.
Thank you for taking the time and helping out.

The cause of the setup.exe error has been identified.
After checking the data differences, it was found that there was a problem with the CCD mounting tool.
I mounted the CCD using the following tools, but some of the data was corrupted.

・ImgDrive
・Virtual CloneDrive
・WinCDEmu

I was able to mount it using Daemon Tools Lite and run setup.exe to install it.
I used Daemon Tools 20 years ago, but stopped using it due to problems with trojans and adware.

I use the standard Windows functionality to mount ISO files.
I didn't notice the problem until now because I was only using the problematic tool for CD images, and most images mounted without any problems.
From now on, I will use Daemon Tools Lite to mount CD images.

I will consider this problem solved and end this post here.

I think this issue is because of the old Alpha-ROM protection or similar protection methods.
Old Alpha-ROM protection uses the duplicate sectors to detect whether it's copy disc or not. In detail, the different result will be returned when loading duplicate sectors, whether reading sectors forward or reverse.
Some Alpha-ROM CCD files have the both of duplicate sectors, so it needs to use the disc image mounting tool that handles duplicate sectors properly, such as Daemon Tools Lite.
