I'd recommend installing through Steam if you don't want to download to the C: drive.

GGG's standalone installer is finicky on a good day.
GGG do not offer first-party Technical Support.

No way, poe steam is not available in my area. And now i just came back for the new season but still getting the same error. can anyone help me?
I found a solution for this problem, for anyone who has the same error:

1.Copy the content below into Notepad → save the file name PoE_Cleanup.bat.

2.Right click → Run as Administrator.

3.Script will automatically find and delete all PoE / GGG related registry keys.

4.When finished, it will show “Done”.
