Do you have the Steam versions or bought it from Battlefront? In the latter case the manuals are here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Battlefront\Combat Mission Cold War, and so on for the other games.
 
battlefront... are the manuals the files that end in .brz and if so how do i open them..... it did not create a shortcut to them on my desktop the way i am used to.... and i am tech challenged.. lol
 
The manuals are .PDF files. If you don't have Acrobat Reader, it is a free download program to read this kind of file.

appartently i chose the option to download it without the manual.... so i can ask battlerount for a link...or maybe downnload the demo... it comes with manuals... dont want the demo but suppose i can delete it after i get the manuals...
 
Do you have the same file structure as in the attatchment but without manuals? Never seen an option to download without manual, it would be a stupid option for the customer. Did you install the games in the location suggested by the installer?
 
There shouldn't be a full game download without the manuals.

Maybe you downloaded a patch only?
 
Lets just calm down everyone. :) It was obviously a typo and joke response but @Shady Side the other members are trying to help you out. Please note this a community site and not the official Battlefront website. If you wish to directly ask Battlefront you'll need to use their forum: https://community.battlefront.com/

yes sir they are and i have always tell them i appreciate it... because it is not the first time i have ask on here and and you guys have always been good enough to help a tech challenged old feller like me.... there was however one who only wanted to help with my grammer....which i admit i might have went overboard on......though i did try to keep it rated P.G...... usually in my real life it aint P.G.....I do apologize if i offended anybody though..
by the way big fan out your youtube channel ... have not seen u post much lately though

Right click on the shortcut for one of the manuals that you're missing. In the dialog box that opens chose "Properties". In the properties there is info about which folder the shortcut "points to". Go to that folder, and if there is no manual there (.pdf), then there is actually something missing. Maybe something about the big bundle you bought is missing some files. Wors case scenario I can send all the manuals to you. Just drop me a message.
