Problems with JTCS

Post by deep12 »

Well good afternoon all. Have been playing this series for a number of years, from Win98 I believe. Changed to Win10 from Win7, couldn't find my download from my Win7 so purchased a new download and also a disc. Read the forum and downloaded ensuring I had the correct microsoft 32 bit software installed and off I went. Noticed that when exiting the game (File tab at top left ) the game went straight to the main EF/WF/RS page with none of the awards or "Well Dones" as usual. When exiting completely back to my desktop a Unit info icon appears and when going to my browser I have a background colour change to a Buff colour. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling both from the download and the disc where, on some occasions the top toolbar with the exit in is not available. It is now looking as though when uninstalling there are files left over as previous campaigns are still there even though I uninstalled. Have to try and find those somehow. In a bit of a pickle at the moment, need to get back to square 1, may try a recovery unless there are any great suggestions. Cheers
Dave

Well I am happy to say that with 2022 has come a new found view of my previously stated problem and such a simple fix. Just tinkering about and decided to look at EOAexperience appearing just above "Eastern Front" in the Task Manager. This led me to a "Text Cursor Enhancement Tool" (Coloured Bar appearing when you type) so I turned it off and hey presto Western Front now works properly and I can play Campaign games rather than just Scenarios. Haven't tried the other games yet as I am so eager to get stuck in but no reason to think that they will not be OK also.
Happy Days and Happy New Year to all
