First it has to be manually installed from CD. Copy the ROGUE directory to your hard disk. Then copy ROGUE.EXE from the root of the CD into the same folder. Finally grab the three DSETUP .dll files from INSTALL (along with any .txt and .doc files you want) and also put them in ROGUE. If you had placed the ROGUE folder in C:\Games then your directory structure would look like this:

Due to 64 bit registry redirection, use the 32-bit version of regedit to import <code>rogue.reg</code>. It can be started from a Run box with the command <code>%SystemRoot%\SysWOW64\regedit.exe</code>. Drag and drop rogue.reg into the Registry Editor window.

'''Notes'''

{{ii}} If a launcher still shows only install option, run regedit.exe and go to: <code>HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\LucasArts Entertainment Company LLC\Rogue Squadron\v1.0</code> and see if it's not empty. Keep in mind, that these entries must be located under Wow6432Node or they will not work. If they aren't - it's probably as a result of importing them using 64bit regedit. Use 32bit edit to import them.
 +
{{ii}} If an error pops up asking to '''reinstall a game''', it's probably, because entries in registry point to incorrect locations. Open regedit.exe and go to <code>HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\LucasArts Entertainment Company LLC\Rogue Squadron\v1.0</code>. There edit entries '''Analyze Path''', and '''CD Path''' to refer to locations on your CD/DVD drive. After that edit entries '''Executable''', '''Install Path''', '''Source Dir''' and '''Source Path''' to make them refer to a directories and files on your hard drive.
