Why Does My Mounted ISO Show a ‘Specified Path Does Not Exist’ Error?

Asked By GameGuru123 On

I'm encountering an issue with a mounted ISO file while trying to install an older game. I'm getting an error that says 'specified path does not exist,' even though the files are clearly there. I've tried various methods like changing compatibility settings, running the setup as an administrator, and even using the command prompt. The command prompt also says the file doesn't exist. I've even copied files out of the ISO to try running the setup from my PC directly, but I still face the same issue. Interestingly, another older game I have mounted works just fine. Any ideas on what might be going wrong?

That’s definitely frustrating! If it was working before on your older PC, it could be related to how the new system is handling ISOs or the specific settings. You might also want to try a different mounting software or use a virtual machine to run it, as those methods sometimes bypass the protected checks.

The game you’re trying to install, Star Wars Pit Droids, likely uses disc-based copy protection. This type of protection checks if you’re using the actual CD instead of an ISO or copied version, which could be the reason it’s rejecting the files. Older games often included these protections to prevent piracy, and it seems that’s causing issues with your installation attempt.
