Extract trainer and make sure trainer/launcher/editor is in a folder excluded from virus scans. Empty quarantine folder if needed or set anything trainer related (paths and EXE's) to ALLOW. Disable any Live/Active/Real-Time tools which may trigger false positives in security software which may terminate the game/trainer when it's activated or options used.

C:\Users\USERNAMEHERE\Cheathappens

may need to be added to exclusions as well. Run trainer as admin, read the instructions and try again.

Note: Exclusions may need to be added to both Widows Defender and any 3rd party software you use.

Appears you can speak well enough to swear. Keep it civil please.

Delete trainer and all files in

C:\Users\USERNAMEHERE\AppData\Local\Temp
C:\Users\USERNAMEHERE\Cheathappens\Work
C:\Users\USERNAMEHERE\AppData\Roaming\Cheat Happens\0x90
C:\ProgramData\CheatHappens
C:\ProgramData\CheatHappens Temp

Reboot PC to clear excess memory, get a fresh copy of latest trainer, extract it and make sure trainer/launcher/editor is in a folder excluded from virus scans. Empty quarantine folder if needed or set anything trainer related (paths and EXE's) to ALLOW. Disable any Live/Active/Real-Time tools which may trigger false positives in security software which may terminate the game/trainer when it's activated or options used. Run trainer as admin, read the instructions and try again. At times, a new game may be needed to resolve failed options if the data in your save file was altered. Use on a new game and test the option. If it now works, quit to main menu and load your save and try it again.

If I downgrade the game version to 1424 the old trainer working. If I use the latest version 1432 I can activate the trainer, but when I move around and press num1, to find the character, it fails all the time.

Cant get it activated, but have the correct version and all. No modding. It worked in the starting area. But died and haave not killed the ghost yet. Cant activate it now. Is that only working in start area?

Could be data in the save is already altered or changed, try a new game.

I dont have any mods, but had the offical mod manager installed.
Then the trainer isn't working anymore.

Hi. The game patched to 64 bit. Why? Because whatever. Good news! The current trainer will work FOREVER.

- 64-bit is now required (For players with 32-bit computers the previous version (1.4.3.2) can still be accessed as a beta)

The developers just decided to change the computer requirements of their 3.5 year old game.

At any rate, access the 32 bit version and enjoy the current posted trainer forever.

Game is now retired since the 32 bit version will theoretically work forever.

best,
Cal
