I did a brand new Windows install and when I reinstalled Kamidori the patcher searches all my drives but never finds the installation! So I can not patch the game. How can I resolve this issue?

Can I be sure you installed the game in your system being Japanese locale? And you also installed the Apprends?

Yes.. I finally figured it out but can't figure out why the game saves was preventing the game from completing install properly. I moved the game saves.. ran registry first aid to remove all traces of the game install.. This was a brand new install on a brand new windows installation only thing I had copied over was the game save folder.. I than did a new install.. than patched and copied the game save and it worked. Seems something with the installer if it sees any directories related to game must not do a full type installation but maybe an upgrade type installation.
