Yeah, so it's 2021 and Ubi still hasn't fixed it. So I recently got in contact with the support and Kaefigseele's solution is still the only way to get it running without downloading the game otherwise. The support was nice and when I told them about the issue and the solution they immediately helped.
I fixed the Hammers of Fate install script for my partner. It might help you too.
The problem was that Ubisoft modified the original game's registry key path, without modifying where the expansion pack looks for those keys. My fix is to either modify the install script such that it looks for the correct registry key or to copy the registry key into the correct place.
I've documented the fix at https://madeupexplorations.wordpress...or-on-windows/
I make no promises, but I hope this helps some of you enjoy your game.

Hopefully it will help others!
You're very welcome. That's my hope.Originally Posted by Ubi-Viral Go to original post
Is it worth me getting in touch with your support team to let them know what the issue is?
Not to worry, we'll pass it on.Originally Posted by Slortibort Go to original post
This is the best place for it as it has visibility for other players too.
Thanks again Slortibort!
Appreciate it!
