Hearts of Iron 4 Installation Error
When i try to install HOI4 it gives me this:

[2016-06-30 18:57:30] Uninstalled app 394360 (No Error)

The wiki contains wery long strains that makes it difficult to read and gives a write disk error. If anyone finds a solution that would be great.

thanks in advance

From what you posted it appears you don't have enough disk space to install the game or at least the install routine says that you don't.

Yea thats the odd thing. i have 151 GB free out of 197 GB so that can not be the issue. still cant figure out what it can be. i have tried many things surgested by ppl that may have "fixed" the problem. Nothing helped so far

Is your available disk space on D:? cuz thats where its trying to install it...

I'd try to install another game and see if that works... then you'll know if its Steam or the game itself having the problem

What I did was Go to the steam button in the top left and press exit. then went to task manager and endded all stam processes. Then Restarted steam and downloaded it and it worked.
