Windows 10: "General extraction error Location ES1" when installing or running a game; cannot uninstall...

I've been having a recurrent issue with installing Diner Dash 5: BOOM! on my Windows 10 laptop. When I launch the installer, it starts validating the CDROM, but then it gives me an error saying "General extraction error / Location ES1". After I click OK, the installation finishes in a matter of seconds, then when I launch the game, it gives me the same error again. I'd like to try to uninstall and reinstall the game, but I cannot do that, as the uninstaller is "blocked for my protection". I'm the only user on this laptop and my account is administrator, but it's still not letting me uninstall.

General extraction error location ES1 on a game

I bought Wedding Dash: Ready Aim Love on Amazon and when I installed it and clicked 'play,' an error appeared. It said 'General extraction error location ES1.' I double-clicked a bunch of times, and it still didn't work. I followed instructions on how
to get rid of the error but it still didn't work. What do you think the problem is?

Hello Venkataraghavan,

Usually you can see General extraction error Location ES1
error, with unsuccessful or improper installation of the application. I guess you have missed out somewhere.

Let do one thing, uninstall the game from your PC completely, and go to your system drive (Usually C: drive) and ensure that there should be any folder or files related to the missing out without deletion. If any try to remove
them manually. In this I recommend to use Game Uninstaller
to remove the game from your PC. Check for this on Game Official Website.

Once done, reboot your PC, then install the game from the source you have. Now initiate the game to play from the Game folder located in your system drive(Usually C: drive),
instead from the shortcut that is created and located on your desktop. Check and see if it helps

Keep us posted if you require further assistance.

 

General extraction error Location ES1

Hi team,

I have installed Monopoly Here and Now game on my Windows 7-upgraded-to-Windows 10 machine. While it was working fine on Win 7, I am getting the general extraction error when I run it on Win 10. I have tried all of the following steps:

1. Run on compatibility from Win 95 until Win 7

2. Run as administrator

3. Uninstalling and reinstalling the game.

4. Repeat 1 & 2 after 3.

I am still getting the general extraction error. Could someone help me out?

Warm regards,

Venkataraghavan V
