Have you tried installing CE to a different location (i.e. the standard Program Files (x86) folder)?

Make sure you are installing a clean copy of CE from a reliable source.

Also, make sure you do not have any foreign characters in any of the file paths that CE will use, just to be sure.

Nothing should be going to OneDrive.

I have tried to download it into different folders and drives but it automatically puts it into the same place as seen above picture. i also made sure that there were no other languages other than English on those folders as well.

so you downloaded https://github.com/cheat-engine/cheat-engine/releases/download/6.5.1/CheatEngine651.exe and it did the same?


if so, check your anti virus or other protection programs. perhaps it is interfering with the setup

Thank you so much for you guys replying to me in a hurry.

however the download links you both provided seem to have same outcome at the end. same error message and same problem. i have also turned off any anti virus before hand.

The only thing i am wondering if i did anything wrong is when i am going through downloading the CE, do i have to accept to download the two other programs that i don't need? because i clicked i do not accept on them both since i have no use for them.

once again thanks guys

It's weird. So you get that message after the two offers. (No need to install those)

Try manually extracting http://cheatengine.org/download/CheatEngine651NoSetup.rar (you need rar5 or later or an up to date 7zip)

Maybe try this before installing:

Code:
1. Swipe in from the right edge of the screen, tap Settings, and then tap Change PC settings. ...
2. Tap or click OneDrive, and File Storage.
3. Turn off “Save documents to OneDrive by default.”
