Went to the control panel and selected update and was taken to the eq2interface page with the new updated download. No problem. Ran the download from the site, chose my eq2 directory and finished the install. This is where it got wrong. It began to update my EQ configuration (I play EQ as well). Then launched EQ, which began to have to rebuild because of the files that were changed by the install. I uninstalled Extreme and tried again with the same result. I made sure I had the right path to EQ2 folder selected. Once again I uninstalled as well as uninstalling the original ExtremeUI installation I had loaded already. Ran the install again after saving the download to my desktop, which is where I ran it from this time. Same result. It is tapping into my EQ, not EQ2. Now as far as my file setup it is this: I have my Sony Folder in Program Files. Inside the Sony Folder are my EQ files, not in an EQ Folder but loose in Sony Folder. Also inside the Sony Folder is my EQ2 Folder. hope I made this clear. Is there some reason for this install issue that has to do with the setup of the Sony Folder? If you need clarification on anything please tell me. I really need to figure this out as this is the best UI I have used to date. Thanks in advance for any help.
It shouldn't matter where your EQ2 is installed. Once you tell it where eq2 is it looks for the UI folder and then installs every thing in \UI\eXtreme\. If it don't find the UI folder it's not going to install. If it finds 2 UI folders its not going to install.

I don't see how it could be even messing with eq1 even if it did somehow install it there it would put all the files in a directory called eXtreme and that wouldn't make your eq have to rebuild. Forther more it can't even run eq as it is programed to run everquest2.exe or eq2.exe not everquest.exe or eq.exe. So it is impossible for it to run eq unless you renamed the file names.

EDIT:
Well it could run EQ if you added it to one of the two run additional apps to run.
