Hey guys, I'm reinstalling TTW using the new executable installer. Is it normal for it to take several hours to complete the installation process?
I'm running on a somewhat old system based on the Intel Core i7x980 and off a standard physical drive... I've had things slow down before but never this much!

I have a Ryzen 5 2600x and it took me about 3~ hours to install TTW on an HDD. With the one you have you may want to turn off your computer's hibernation mode and just leave it installing over-night.

Took me around 4 to 6 hours to have it installed.

I had the installer run during a game of Monday Night Football, and even after the game, it was still installing for about another 40 minutes or so

Okay show off... Took a couple of hours for me, but even on previous versions, the installer would take a long time. With audio encoding it takes a little longer. People can always run the installer without audio encoding, doesn't take as long. But I wouldn't recommend it. I've waited a long time to hear the glorious muffled voices through intercoms and power armor helmets in TTW. It's a beautiful thing.
I'm not alright, I'm an equal amount of left.

Yeah without the encoding it takes like 9 minutes here, which is twice as fast as the old installer.

Sadly half-way through it had a hard time reading a file and just plain stopped... I think this is more to do with my system though.
I'm upgrading very soon so I'll give it a try on my new box in a few days.
Thanks for all the replies folks.
CHEERS!

What do you mean stopped? Did it have an error, or was it just stopped at a file number and stuck there for a long time? This happened to me, but after a long period of time it eventually continued.
