No. I didn't tell it to put the files in my Documents and Settings folder. I have made no modifications to any of the files I downloaded from this website and installed them according to instruction.
How come Launchpad just decides to re-download the entire game into that directory. It's not downloading Maps into the Docs and Settings folder it's downloading the entire game installation.
Making a shortcut for EQ2MAP is not going to download an entire EQ2 installation into a different folder based on that shortcut. Something has to tell EQ2 that the game installation exists there or doesn't exist there in this case and then it gets installed there.
Oh well, I guess you have to get used to buggy software when you constantly make changes to a games files. Just remember, anytime I start EQ2 from the Launchpad (which is always) I will be watching. I am going to post this in the Everquest 2 forums and any other place I can until I find out what is causing this. A shortcut on my desktop is not going to make Launchpad resintall and re-download the entire game, come on. That's not it.
