<p>I freshly installed the game, patched it all up using the eq2 launching patcher. I also copied some old files that were in the ui folder and general everquest 2 folder, all of which were recovered from deletion (so they might be fragmented). I repatched some files (i dont know why, i guess it must have invalidated some of the current files on the patcher), and i get an error I cannot pass through. I was just going to reinstall, but that would take an hour or so I was wondering if there was certain files I could delete so that the patcher could download a fresh version.</p><p>There error report said it would include a report with a file but it was all giberish and didnt seem to have the same info as the error actually said, and plus the file was gone after i closed the error out, so I can't copy it over anymore.</p><p>Also.. note that my everquest 2 worked fine before I copied over the old (fragmented) files. so I know its not a direct x issue or anything else, its a file that is corrupted within the everquest 2 directory somewhere.</p>

<p>You can resolve most corrupt file issues by deleting the following files:</p><p>cache foldereq2_recent.inieq2_default.iniEverQuest2.exee q2.iniAs well as the character specific files, these will appear as such:Servername_CharacterName_EQ2_uisettings.iniSt ationname_characters.ini</p><p>You can find all of those file in your Everquest 2 directory.</p>
