[Steam] "You must use the "pr.exe" to run Project Reality"

Hi guys!

I just bought BF2 Complete Collection via Steam Store and downloaded Project Reality 0.87, then i created a Game Account and tried to start Project Reality.

When I start PR and logged in, following error message pops up:
"You must use the "pr.exe" to run Project Reality

Please update your Shortcuts as required.

Example: ...BF2\mods\pr\pr.exe
instead of

...BF2.exe"
I'm running the Game as Administrator and my Shortcut looks like this:

Target:
"D:\Steam\steamapps\common\battlefield 2\mods\pr\pr.exe"
Start in: "D:\Steam\steamapps\common\battlefield 2"

I tried too, to start die pr.exe directly in my BF2\mods\pr folder but the same error message appears.

What i should do? :o ops:

I also bought the game through steam and have the exact same problem, i tried solving it as per translated instruction on that site but it did not work out for me.

I'm having the same exact problem...
Also I'm not very computer literate, I downloaded the AutoHotkey, and I dont know what to do with it? Is there another way that a STEAM user can install PR? This mod looks great and I would like to play as soon as I can.
