I got following error. ‘InstallShield error code-6001

This is due to InstallShield not being able to replace an older copy of Installshield with the files provided in the GRAW Setup.

The workaround for this is to delete the folder these files are in and allow the GRAW installer to replace the necessary files.

Delete the folder "0701" in the following directory :

"C:Program FilesCommon FilesInstallshieldProfessionalRuntime"

Once deleted, you should be able to install the game normally.
This will NOT affect any other applications or programs on your system.

Hope this helpful!
