go to add remove programs, or if you have a disk put it in, select uninstall it will bring up the ee installer at which point you choose to repair, it will bring it to the correct version

Find your \Sierra\Empire Earth\Data\db folder, delete it, then install Omega's patch again by going to the Patch tab and either hitting Auto-Update or also try Force Patch Update along with Copy Files To Install Directories.

On the main menu, look in the top left corner and tell us what the version number from there is (vX.XX.XXXX)

i spoke to this guy for over an hour. he eventually got it right up until 2.00.3446 aka 2.0 then he sed he restarted game and it went back to x.xx.2059. then he sed he updated with omegas and it went to 4059 or something similar. its a very odd problem.

he needs to repair game then not run the patch update anymore and it will be fine, mine does the same thing so do a mass amount of others that i have had to do that too, manually patching, deleting and repatching works sometimes but not always

I am sorry for digging this thread, but this has to be said:
I just registered on this forum after hours of trying to install my game on my computer (and my gf's). We did everything correct, but whenever I started my game a 2nd time, the version went from 6345 back to 2059 (or something).
I've read multiple threads about people having the same issue and most "solutions" were, that they had to reinstall the game because they did something wrong..

Just do what Sexacutioner said and it will stay at version 6345 and you'll be able to play it with anyone.
Thank you very much :)
