Well, in all my years of using BIAB this has never happened.

I started up BIAB this morning and it said there was an update available, so I went ahead and installed just like I have many, many times before.

At the end of the install it came up with an error message about being unable to install bbw.exe because it already existed, and asked if I wanted to retry or abort. I retried a couple of times, same error, so I selected abort.

It said it was rolling back the changes. I then clicked on the BIAB desktop shortcut, it said the location the shortcut pointed to no longer exists.

Now when I look in c:\bb there is no bbw.exe file, so the rollback obviously didn't work.

How do I recover from this?????

UPDATE: I tried to recover by downloading the patch from the site here and running it. It fails because it says it must be installed on top of an existing BIAB installation, I suppose it's looking for c:\bb\bbw.exe which no longer exists because the rollback procedure during the previous attempt didn't restore that file.
