Guys I've installed Halo CE on my computer. I thinks it was installed on C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games then I moved the Microsoft Games folder to E:\. It's stayed like that for a long time. When I downloaded HEK and tried to install it told that it can't find Halo CE installed, please install it! I can't afford to download Halo CE or HEK again due to limited data connection. Please Help!

Apparently public enemy number 1?

open regedit, navigate to your HCE registry
32bit: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft Games\Halo CE
64bit: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Microsoft Games\Halo CE
change the exepath to wherever its currently installed.

Didn't understand. A little more detail?

when you navigate to that registry key, there will be some 'exe path' variable, that will say something like 'c:\program files\microsoft games\halo custom edition'. Replace that path, with wherever you moved the game to.

Thanks. HEK is detecting Halo CE now.
