I have had Far Cry for awhile and for some reason I cannot install the 1.31 patch. I get an uninstall prompt before installation of the patch which I go through only to have this error message appear:

Feature transfer error

Error: -1605 This action is only valid for products that are currently installed

A few months back I had manually uninstalled the game. When I went to reinstall, that is when this message had started to appear. I have done clean install after clean install but nothing seems to work. Today I did another install of Far Cry, the 1.3 patch had to be uninstalled before it could be installed again . And the 1.31 patch is mentioned above. I have tried contacting Ubisoft but they kept telling me to do a clean install which never worked. What do I do?

LoL, you probably have some files still in your game folders from going to a certain patch to the next and so on.. and got corrupted patch files. (means you probably have patch files from 2 different incompatible versions).

- Uninstall the game


- install the game

- Save your saved game files if you want to keep them. The easiest way is to make a copy of the profiles folder in programfiles/ubisoft


You have to goto the (Full) 1.3 patch first then get the 1.3 to 1.31 patch and your done.

Did everything you said. Did not work. Still getting same message.

You probably have a reference still in the computer somewhere, its the reason that manual installs should be avoided.
