Hey I just bought HM3 yesterday and tried to install it. But it always says :
The following shortcuts could not be created:
Run Holdem Manager 3 (C./Program Files (x86)/Holdem Manager 3/ holdemmanager3.exe)
Run HM3 HUD ONLY (C./Program Files (x86)/Holdem Manager 3/ Server.exe)
What can I do? I have not much knowledge about this computer stuff
thanks
Which Operating System, Firewall, and AntiVirus are you using?
- Uninstall any 3rd party security software bundles.
- Reboot your computer
- Please try to uninstall HM3 from your Control Panel - Programs and Features menu.
- Rename your C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Roaming\Max Value Software\Holdem Manager\ folder*. You can delete this later if we don't ask you to send it to us or copy/paste the contents back to where they were originally.
* If you can't see it, turn off the windows option that is hiding that directory. http://faq.holdemmanager.com/questio...es+in+Windows+
- Delete C:\Program Files (x86)\Holdem Manager 3\ if you see it.
- Download and install HM3 again from this link - https://www.holdemmanager.com/downlo...channel=stable
- Enable Windows Firewall's recommended settings through your Control Panel, turn off Windows Defender (unless you are using Windows 10, in which case it should be enabled).
- Install Microsoft Security Essentials (unless you are using Windows 10) for antivirus/malware protection and update it - https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/14210
