1.3 HELP

Ok I've got 1.3 downloaded on my virtual "E Drive" through Virtual Clone Drive. I also have it on WinRAR which I also installed as recommended.

What do I do with file on WinRAR?

When I try run 1.3 from "E" Drive I get following message:

An error occurred while trying to rename a file in destination directory:
Movefile failed; code 2.
System cannot find file specified

If I click ignore it wont let me play on servers which is whole basis of loading in the first place

CONFUSED. I'm no computer expert so when guys start quoting technical sh!t I don't know what they are talking about.

We got any UK based guys I could talk to on phone to talk me through problems. It's probably a quick fix but as I don't know what I'm looking for I am lost.

-download the .ISO file.

-if you have win8 just double click it to mount it. This will make it act like it's a DVD in your PC which you can open and then run setup.exe
-if you don't have win8 you can either mount it(like above) with Virtual Clone Drive OR open the file with 7zip or winrar to extract it to a folder. From there you can then run the setup.exe

Anyway, this is all perfectly explained in the tutorial linked everywhere.

What is the file size of your 1.3 download?
This message seems familiar and I think it is because you are trying to open the .iso file which is only several Kb. The full 1.3 file is 6.72 Gb.

If it was perfectly explained I wouldn't be having a problem. Finally got help elsewhere and now up and running.
