Unable to re-install
Hey there DarkMenace,
It sounds very frustrating that Diablo 2: Resurrected is refusing to reinstall on that second drive. It seems to be stopping after getting partially downloaded which may be due to permissions, damaged files, interfering programs, or a connection problem. The Battle.net application also seems to be having a different symptom which may be a clue here.
What I’d like to try is a reinstall of the Battle.net application, but to be extra thorough with removing ALL folders it uses. There are some places where temporary files are kept that aren’t removed with a normal uninstall. If something is damaged in those areas, it can cause issues like this, so we’ll want to nuke everything with the following steps:
- Uninstall the application
- Press Windows key + R and type in %temp%
- Delete anything related to Blizzard or Battle.net
- Do the same for %programdata%, %localappdata%, %appdata%
- Reinstall the application. A fresh installer should be downloaded for this
Once that’s done, please test if the install will finish up. Should a problem persist, please test creating and switching to a new administrator account to see if that helps.
Hopefully these ideas help out. Cheers!
