    Having just managed to get Arma up and running again and with none of my rl friends playing, I'm looking for any group/clan that I can join at nights for a bit of DayZ. I'm Scottish so a lot of you may not understand me, I'd prefer to communicate via Skype (lol_shirra), I'm 21 and currently full time employed so I won't be available monday to friday during the day. So i'm looking for just a group or clan who are up for a laugh just gathering gear and fighting bandits, nothing strict.

    windows vista/7/8 its a hidden folder in your users

    path should be this

    C:\Users\PUTYOURUSERHERE\AppData\Local

    there should be arma folders in there

    Cheers, I found a single Arma 2 folder, deleted that, I've checked and rechecked steamapps folder in my C drive to make sure folders there are gona, I've deleted all Bohemia folders I can find. I'll redownload Arma 2 tomorrow and give it one last try. If not then I've watsed 16 quid lol.

    did you uninstall it from steam as well or just delete the folders

    at this point i would start from the beginning uninstall everything arma oa and arma delete all the folders left over including the one in %APPDATA% and remove the registry entries

    install arma2 run the game to the main menus running as admin and patch it to version 1.11

    install arma 2 oa run the game to the main menus running as admin and patch it to version 1.62

    run both games to the main menus as admin again

    use playwith6/dayzcommander to install dayz and beta patches

    Searched for %APPDATA% can't find it

    I uninstalled it from steam over a month ago.

    I'll give that a try, but it keeps trying to install OA within the Arma 2 folder instead of its own folder, and once it has installed I get a Combined Operations icon and for some reason nothing can find my Arma 2 OA game even though its blatantly there, I've tried manually patching like I said with no success. Is this supposed to happen?

    Ok, so I installed Arma 2, ran it, then downloaded OA and since I previously had it on steam (uninstalled), and deleted all folders i got the message "do you want to re-install" I installed and when I launched the game it just goes into arma 2 even though it says "arma 2 oa" when I mouse over the desktop icon. After installing the icon I get is combined operations, which is confusing DayZ commander, Arma 2 0a has installed itself within the arma 2 folder, so I tried overriding my directory to the same folder to update OA, it says arma 2 oa is not installed, i tried patching manually, also said arma 2 is not installed. I'm at a complete loss as to what is going wrong. Please help.
