RTW: Alexander no start fix

[Emperor Of The Infinite Suns]

After buying and downloading Alexander for RTW i found it failed to even allow me to start up the game, BI and Vanilla would work perfectly fine, however only Alexander wouldn't.

After a long time searching, i found several solutions i will post here in case anyone else has the same problems and needs help with this Alexander specific problem (although the links are also useful for problems with Vanilla, BI and Alex).

Alongside that I found my game failed to load due to a simple mistake in the file naming.

Basically, if none of the above help, follow these steps.

1) Find your Rome Total War Alexander files.
2) Click into the file and search for the file named "Miles"
3) Right click the folder and select rename
4) Rename the folder from "Miles" with a capital, to "miles" with a lower case
5) Load up your game, it should work
6) If it doesn't ensure none of the files that have been installed download with capitals, if needed, change them to lower case. DO NOT CHANGE THE LAUNCHER TO A LOWER CASE!!!

I hope this helps anyone who has this problem, i know it is 2018 but people are still new to total war, so here you guys go.
