2 years ago Ok so it seems that my PATH was messed up so Powershell couldn't run, and consequently Heroic couldn't install anything too.
To fix it, I searched for "environment variables" on the startup menu and opened the editor as shown on the screenshot
Then, I clicked on "Environment variables"
And on System Variables, I selected "PATH" and clicked on edit
And then I added the following
%SystemRoot%\system32
%SystemRoot%
%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem
%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\
%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\OpenSSH\
After that I restarted the computer and both Heroic and my Powershell were working fine, hope that helps someone else too.
Thanks to CommandMC, Nocccer and everyone else that gave me a hand on the Discord server!!!
Describe the bug
Already asked for help on discord but I thought that doing it here too might help other people with the same issue as mine, since I haven't found a clear solution here on GitHub.
"I'm trying to install Fall Guys on Heroic but the "Install" button is disabled, and I'm receiving the following warning: "Warning: path might not be writable."
At first I thought it was related to me changing the default installation drive, but even after resetting Heroic I'm still having the same issue
I don't think it's memory related too, as I saw on some forums, and here are some screenshots to prove it
I also thought that it might be something related to permissions, but running the app as an administrator and it didn't seem to solve the problem too
Also, this isn't the only game to have this issue, same thing happens with any other games on my library (also screenshoted)"
