You mentioned that you only have your trainers folder excluded. What about the Work folder?

I excluded the whole cheathappens folder and both are running now while activated...

And it appears to be working. Thank you very much for your help.

Hey something weired is happening i downloaded the trainer and everything ssems right but when i start it is the Fallout 4 VR trainer!? is there a wrong link to the file or something?

Working fine here and launching the CoH trainers as intended. Maybe you got the wrong shortcut or something?

I am having issues getting this latest trainer v2.7 to execute properly.

For example when I run as administrator, it starts to launch as normal then a box opens up asking me which program I want to open this with?

I have downloaded and used a lot of CH over the years and not had this issue, I don't use anti virus, and all the CH trainers are excluded in windows defender etc.

I have downloaded this trainer several times to check make sure it isn't a browser security issue. The download is fine, extracted contents is fine, just the file itself appears to not want to open properly.

I downloaded the trainer prior to the latest trainer (2.6 Classic) and this executes just fine but obviously will not work with the game because it is outdated version.

Please create a scan exclusion in Defender for the Work folder located here -> C:\Users\YourWindowsUserName\Cheathappens\ , clear Defender's scan history and quarantine should you find anything in there, clear these locations

C:\Users\USERNAMEHERE\AppData\Local\Temp\
C:\Users\USERNAMEHERE\Cheathappens\Work\

reboot your PC and launch our editor with admin rights again.

Thank you for your reply Taurusplopp,

While I appreciate your response and your help in this matter I have completed your advice.

However the trainer .exe is bugged and may need to be looked at whoever created it.
I have tried this exe on this desktop pc, my gaming laptop, and another household pc
all have the same conclusion, and that is upon executing the .exe it appears to launch then ask which program I wish to open it with, which clearly is not the proper execution of a CH trainer.

here is a snapshot of how the trainer appears to be extracted in my folder as it does in the other computers I downloaded it to (Please see link at bottom)

Notice the number 12217-cgd442. this may indicate that it is an account injection issue when creating the trainer for me, as I don't normally see a trainer with a number infront of it like that.

Thanks for your help.

Chris.
