Posts from Patches 1.4, 1.41, and 1.5 cannot be installed. Auto-translated

Patches 1.4, 1.41, and 1.5 won't install.
There are no errors, the installation process completes normally, but the version doesn't update:(
There are no crashes or errors. =(
I installed them in sequence, from 1.4 to 1.5 :(
What should I do?:( :( :(
P.S. I downloaded the patches from the Nival website.

The first question, as always in such cases, is: do you definitely have a valid license?

Fireball, да.

If the installation process proceeds as usual, meaning it finds the game and asks a couple of questions that you answer by clicking "OK," then everything should be fine. However, it's possible that the file was downloaded incorrectly, but that's quite rare. Ask Alan; he's an expert on glitches and bugs in Heroes of Might and Magic.

Does the map editor appear?

Try disabling all firewalls and antivirus programs.

Do they somehow interfere?

I've encountered this issue a couple of times. But through trial and error, I found a solution back then, and I'm recommending it now. You don't need to delete anything; just disable it. It might be recognizing the patch as a program invader and preventing it from performing its functions without prompting. However, it's also possible that there are incorrect registry entries. If the path is wrong, the patch might simply write files to a different directory. You can check the patch for bugs in the following way: install patch 1.5 (for example), and then try to install 1.1 (again, just an example). If the patch works correctly, it should prevent the installation of an older version.

If you want, contact Paladin on ICQ, and we'll try to solve the problem, this time with the patches.

If the game is not a licensed copy, the patch won't even attempt to install – it says that the file was not found and terminates. If it somehow installs, it means that the game is fine in terms of licensing. If it installs in the wrong location, you can search all disks for the file H5_Game.exe. If a second instance is found, you can manually copy everything to the correct location, or delete the game, clean the registry, and reinstall everything from scratch. If a second instance is not found, you need to troubleshoot Windows, antivirus programs, and firewalls. With an active antivirus, even on a powerful dual-core computer, you might have to watch the opening sequence for 5 minutes.
