You more than likely need to reinstall CE

The HaloCE installer should create the registry entry when you run it. Where as 
running say the "portable" HaloCE (which doesn't actually install it) doesn't 
create the directory paths we use in the OS installer.

Reviewing at the settings we use in the OS installer, we seem to only query the 
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE registry root. So if you installed CE for "only this user", 
the registry entries (Software\Microsoft\Microsoft Games\Halo CE) would 
probably instead appear under HKEY_CURRENT_USER, which we don't query in the 
3.1 installer.

I'll take to FireScythe about making sure we try and look in both locations in 
future installers. For now, the only fix I can suggest is to reinstall CE/HEK 
for "all users"

Unless I'm crazy. Pretty sure the CE installer offers such an option ("all 
users/this user only")...been years since I've had to install CE on a machine.

Is everyone here running a 64-bit version of Windows? If so, what flavor? Win7?

Two others having these issues are on 64-bit Win8

Is there no way to manually install this? I am having this same problem using 
Win8.1 x64. I have my Halo CE installed on a drive that isn't C: and would 
prefer to not have to reinstall it (especially onto C:) in order for this to 
work.

Sorry, there's no official way to manually install 3.1.

With that said, the installer for the next version has been improved with 
regard to this and other related usability issues. But with *that* said, I 
can't say when the next version will be released. We're pretty much still 
operating on CMT's release schedule.
