Hello everyone,

I have the Extended Edition of Age of Mythology on Steam. I have also located the game files in Voobly (C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Age of Mythology\AoMX.exe)

But when I try to launch the game, I get an error: "Error - Unable to find license library (EBUEulax.dll)".

Could someone please help me resolve this issue? I've attached a screenshot as proof that I own AoM on Steam. Thank you!;tears

Hi Herb_wife,

Thank you for contacting us and I'm sorry to hear you are having problems with your game. I assume you have already downloaded our [You must login to view link], so it seems like you have directed Voobly to the wrong executable. Please do the following steps to resolve the issue.

1) Close both Voobly and Steam.
2) Rename the Steam folder (C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam) to Steam2.
3) Open Voobly and join the AOT Main Lobby.
4) The game diagnostics will now prompt you to locate the Age of Mythology executable. Please point the diagnostics to this file: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Age of Mythology\aomx.exe
5) Restart Voobly and now you should be able to play Age of Mythology on Voobly.
6) Rename the Steam2 folder back to Steam. Basically: undo step 2.

Please let us know if you need any further assistance.

Hello, thank you very much for your response! However, I am now encountering two issues:

1. The folder at C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Age of Mythology\aomx.exe is empty!

2. I downloaded a patch the day before yesterday, but it seems the download failed. The progress bar was full but there was no response for a long time, so I closed it. Now, when I try to download it again, I get an error saying, "The root directory of the source and destination paths must be the same. Move operations cannot be performed across different disk drives." This error is preventing me from downloading the patch again. What could be the problem?

Sorry, I am a Chinese player and the above content was translated using AI. Please bear with me! Thank you very much!!;hearts

Please try a VPN that works from mainland China and run the compatibility patch again. Most of the files are missing and have not been properly downloaded, looks like the great firewall of China is blocking the traffic.

Hello, sorry I didn't make it clear. I am from Taiwan, so there shouldn't be any firewall issues. Thank you!;biggrin

Please try to re-download the files using the patch program. If you live in Taiwan, downloading should not be an issue. If this doesn't work, we can explore other options.

Hello, I tried downloading it again and recorded it, but it still failed. Here is the video I recorded: [You must login to view link]

In the video it looks like UAC has been disabled at your computer. Please adjust the UAC settings to "Always notify" and run the compatibility installer again. If you don't know how to do this, please take a look at [You must login to view link].
