decap 10 Posted September 1, 2010 indeed, Cpbo doesn't work anymore, but pboview seems to be working again.Edit: I spoke too soon, pboview doesn't seem to work either. Anyone got any news on this? The news is to reread this thread and numerous people have answered how to get cpbo working just fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Badassdom 0 Posted September 10, 2010 (edited) @Decap, would the fix be removing the cpbo keys and reinstalling cpbo? if so that doesn't see to work any more after the last patch. Could be im not doing it right do. It seems i was doing it wrong then. Edited November 19, 2010 by arkengel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
callihn 10 Posted September 22, 2010 Hey everyone, I downloaded Kegetys cPbo tool kit, but I can't seem to figure it out, I ran the .exe and tried to extract Warfare2.pbo and got nothing, the command prompt popped up then disappeared. Also for the life of me can't figure out the Folder/registry part. I would greatly appreciate the help, thanks much! TIP: Run command line applications from the command line, life is not all about clicking. ;) indeed, Cpbo doesn't work anymore... See above. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kylania 568 Posted September 22, 2010 The fix is removing the OA PBO registry entries and letting CPBO overwrite them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Binkowski 26 Posted September 23, 2010 yeah, oktane made a reg edit file that will remove the arma2 pbo association, allow cpbo to work again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
callihn 10 Posted September 26, 2010 Or you could run it from a command line, it works prefectly and requires no association with PBO files to be added. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PuFu 4600 Posted October 21, 2010 Yeah its the Deleting certain registry values could cause system instability message i dont like I already said what registry entries you need to delete in order to get cpbo working. If you do it or not, then that's your own decision to make, but it was you who wanted a step by step way to do it, i was pointing you to it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WallyJas 10 Posted October 21, 2010 (edited) I'm having the same issues, have manually deleted the registry keys but still the cpbo is not working, says file cannot be overwritten. Edited October 21, 2010 by WallyJas Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
muttly 10 Posted October 22, 2010 hey wally i got it working mate just take your time i made the mistake of not searching properly there s quiet few entries for .pbo just keep doin find search till got them all and delete the whole folder then follow this you have to get rid of the current associations for .pbo (DOTPBO) in the registry - there will probably be two... run a regedit search for .pbo - delete the entries you find - reboot... right click Cpbo (run as admin) - say yes to the "associate with pbo files" offer reboot again (important) Then - doubleclicking a .pbo should extract it to a folder of the same name at the same location - right clicking any folder gives you the "make pbo" option... fast and easy - a personal weapon of choice... quoted from bushlurker in another thread make sure check here too cpbo creates its shell integration using the following registry keys: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.pbo\DefaultIcon HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.pbo\shell\Extract all HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.pbo\shell\Extract PBO... HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shell\create PBO\ you can remove these keys with regedit to remove the explorer integration good luck :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
