Hello All,

Can use some help as Voobly simply crashes while in game. Once I go to desktop the app has closed.
I have had the same settings for almost last 3 years but this has started recently. Re-installed Voobly but issue is not fixed. Most of the time this happens when playing a game in 1.5 RC patch.
If someone can help that would be really great.

DirectPlay Init Success!
Scanning installed DirectPlay games...

DirectPlay play thinks the game is installed at 'C:\Users\KK\Desktop\Misc\Games\aoe'
DirectPlay command line is 'Lobby'
DirectPlay play thinks the game exe is at 'C:\Users\KK\Desktop\Misc\Games\aoe\AGE2_X1\age2_x1.exe'
Verifying file exists... Success!

Everything looks fine. DirectPlay is configured and the game was found on your harddrive. If you still have problems try rejoining the lobby or restarting your computer.

Your installation is not supported by Voobly, this is why: the game must NOT be installed within the home folder directory, e. g. C:\Users\

Please follow this self-help article to perform a clean installation of the game:
