Save Empire Earth

So, my friends and I are using the same USB file to get empire earthGOLD.
The AoC edition normally gives people v2.00.3466,
but I for some reason get v2.00.2159.
I can't patch since I don't have the game on my hard drive and would like if you didn't recommend me deleting everything and installing the game from the start, since I've installed it before and it didn't work...

It's the exact same files, but it's just there for no appearent reason.

Please help!!

it's a miracle aoc works on a USB, since it requires the installation for empire earth classic. (Unless you got that installed.)

Nothing is installed.
It's just the game with a crack I think.
PLEASE HELP!

I have generaly bad experience with shortshortshort-cuts. Been on several lan's where we all was supose to use same USB for EEC, and it always ends up with 1 or 2 with a wierd verson. So if i were you I would delete the shit and download something you know works. (EE unlimited for example)

But if you wanna be hard on ur self then look on the Comp with wrong verson for files that can change versons. I'm thinking old EE-files if u had EE installed on that Comp before.

Maybe Ghost or Omega can give a better answer, but this is what I'm thinking. Good luck!

I don't have any experience with a portable version of the game so I can't offer any advice there.
