[RESOLVED] Cannot reinstall Showcase scenarios

New computer and I am reinstalling the game. All of my Command DLCs activated ok but neither Showcase:Ford nor Queen Elizabeth will activate. There is a box that opens with the message:

On pre install, Line 49: Attempt to index a nil value (global "FilesToDelete")

Stack Traceback:

1: (On Pre Install) Line 49 in main chunk

When I click ok, it goes through an Updating Uninstallation Files for 10525 files and then says Installation Successful. In the game it says the product is Unlicensed.

Please do the following:

1. Download the update file "CMO-MultiUpdateComp-v1.08.1728.zip" for Command: Modern Operations from your account's download area.

2. Once you have finished downloading the file, please unzip it to a folder in your hard drive.

3. Run the extracted file.

4. If you have already installed "CMO-MultiUpdateComp-v1.08.1728.zip" a window will say "You're already up-to-date". If not got click on "Next" and go to step 7.

5. Find a button named "Activate DLC"

6. Agree to License Agreement and click "Next".

7. When asked to insert the serial number, please click in the drop down menu "Select a New Product to Install... " and select "Command Modern Operations: Showcase - Ford Class".
Type your "Command Modern Operations: Showcase - Ford Class" serial number.

8. Click in the button "Check Serial".
You should see then the name "Command Modern Operations: Showcase - Ford Class" being added to the list of games displayed in the box named "Setup as detected a valid serial number for:".

9. Repeat steps 7 and 8 for activating your other DLC.

10. Click in the "Next" button.
