    I re-installed windows

    So I re-installed windows then installed Farcry:3 from my back up drive . Everything went fine but now U-play wants to download Farcry:3 again even though I have it installed ?

    Try running FC3Updater.exe (by right clicking the file and Run As Admin) while Uplay is closed. This file is located in the FarCry3 folder.
    As long as you have Uplay setup to auto-login, the patcher should tell Uplay where the game is installed and if it's up to date or not.

    Yeah I did something like that . Closed U-play then clicked on Updater.exe after that updated it open U-play and I was ready to rock . Still waiting on a few more windows updates .
