I had this problem multiple times on multiple computers using multiple JA2 mods; basically, Vista not only objects to overwriting files, but especially if it's done through another program, sayyy extracting zips or rars over other files.
To anybody running Vista: make sure you have turned off your UAC (User Account Control). This can be done by running msconfig in the Start Menu's "Start Search" box, go over to to Tools tab, scroll down to "Disable UAC". Make sure you turn it back on when you're done... it may be annoying, but Vista is about as secure as a screen porch without it.
Edit: You even have to run as admin just to allow the game permission to use and alter mod files. Strange!
As always, thank you so much to all the devs and modders who keep this community alive. We can't do enough to repay you, and I salivate for every mod that supports 1.13, NIV, and all the wonderful strategic militia doodads. I've had some of the most challenging and rewarding gaming experiences thanks to you guys.
Effusively,
SkunkDave
