Llandru: .. Help?

DeMignon: We have to narrow this error further down. Using a clean installation (deleting the folder) was a good idea. I'd go further and make it as simple as it gets.
- Uninstall the game
- Don't keep old savegames or configuration files. They are stored in a folder named "DefendersQuest" somewhere in the "Users" folder, search for it (as Administrator) and make a backup, then delete it.
- Delete the game's folder
- Re-install and don't use the removable drive for now, but your system disk

Now you can start anew with a complete vanilla installation. Check if it runs.

Did you install a Mod before? Maybe there are references left in the game's configuration, so that it's still looking for it.

Llandru: I uninstalled again, deleting everything I could find including saved games this time (made a backup though). I reinstalled to the C: drive and made everything as vanilla as I could. No joy. :-( I've never installed a mod, either.

Llandru: I'm trying to play the game on a Windows 7 (64-bit) machine. I have successfully played it on this machine in the past (unfortunately, I can't remember the version I was using that worked). I updated to the current version (1.1.45) but the game now refuses to run. It appears to successfully load assets, cutscenes, and backgrounds. Then it displays the following:

"An Error Has Happened! Error #2014:
context: U.fetchPath(mod)
message: Error #2014
stack trace:
null"

I've searched here and elsewhere but was unable to find an existing solution (or even someone else with this problem). I've tried completely uninstalling the game, deleting all files and folders I could find (except saves), and then reinstalling, but I still see the same error. I'm running the game as administrator. The game is installed to a removable drive (but I understand that should work, and it worked before this).

Help?
