[0.12.0] Update fails - duplicate x64 folder in patch zip

[GotLag]

Win7 64-bit, installer fails with the error message "Error when opening C:\Program Files\Factorio\bin\x64/x64/Factorio.exe for reading: No such file or directory"

Edit: this is using the in-game check for updates

Same thing happening here on Win8.1 64-bit.

I try to run Factorio as an administrator, but it's the same problem.

I got the error message when the loading bar is complete.

Edit : Sorry I run it on Windows 8.1 ...

There is a screenshot of the error :

The problem is the path "core-win64-0.11.22-0.12.0-update\__PATH__bin__\x64\" inside core-win64-0.11.22-0.12.0-update.zip, the x64 is unnecessary. Copying the original game files to a new x64 folder inside x64 allows the update to proceed, and copying them back to the original x64 folder allows the game to run in the new version.

It runs and I am currently in-game!

I don't understand your explanation :s
Where I can get the core-win64-0.11.22-0.12.0-update.zip ?

You don't need to do anything with it.

In C:\Program Files\Factorio\bin\x64, make a new folder called x64 and copy Factorio.exe and Factorio.pdb into it. Run Factorio, check for updates, install the update. After installing, Factorio will fail to load, go to C:\Program Files\Factorio\bin\x64\x64 and copy Factorio.exe and Factorio.pdb back to C:\Program Files\Factorio\bin\x64, replacing the older versions. The game should now run.

Or you can try downloading the 0.12.0 installer, or wait for a fixed update.
