First you may wanna keep trying to extract it until it shows.then if u saw start.exe u must keep launching it even tho all files are not yet extracted, make sure to not stop like u will keep having an error because all the files aren’t extracted yet but after the exe closes due to the error make sure u launch it again (i think this avoids the start.exe to disappear). So for my case start.exe seems to show up in a middle of extraction and disappears after all the files gets extracted and in some cases it doesn’t show up at all. it works like a charm for me so i hope this helps y’all and sorry for being confusing cause the way i solved my problem is really mess i think if u did all of this at once u will have a a great chance of launching it. Take note that this is after i set the locale system to Japanese, this may also take a lot of do overs because start.exe sometimes wont show up, the main thing u need to avoid is for it to disappear.ĪLSO THIS MAYBE ONE OF THE REASONS WHY IT WORKED BUT BEFORE I EXTRACTED THE FILE I RENAMED THE FILE”start.exe” to “koi.exe” i dont think it matters what name u put but i did that because when i renamed “恋と選挙とチョコレート.exe” (the exe that gives u the dvd error) to “start.exe” it vanished right away lol (same case for renaming “uninst.exe” to “start.exe” make sure u rename it at the RARfile and not at the folder ur putting it once it shows up. then after that copy paste the serial number “Q6ZL-HRH8-PZJF-Q2RE” then paste it once u open it again because the game will ask for it.

Wait until you get all the files extracted then while its still open go delete the licence at the “config” folder (there should only be 1 thing to delete there so i doubt you’ll get confused).
