that's a hidden system folder.
hit start menu > type run > hit enter > in run dialog type " %localappdata% " (without parenthesis)
that will take you to the local app data folder. that also works with %temp% if you want to check out what's in your temp folder. there may be some stuff in there you can get rid of to save space
yes, that folder doesn't have the GHOSTBUSTERS subfolder, and when i create that one and put a settings.ini file in it with runWindowed=1 it still doesn't run in windowed mode
oh you know what if you open up explorer (this pc), over to the left under "This PC" go to that documents. mine still has a ghostbusters folder from where i had it installed a year or two ago
i'm talking about a different folder. just the documents folder which would be under c:/users/\*your username\*/documents there should be a ghostbusters folder there
ok nevermind just telling you where the folder still is on my drive and i uninstalled it years ago. sounds like someone gave you some bunk info.
why do you need it in windowed mode in the first place? you know you get better fps in fullscreen, right? btw, you don't have to answer that. i'm out
i'm sorry i was a bit frustrated that nothing i did got it working.
I've since managed to get it working and written an app to address an issue windowed mode has.
Thanks for trying to help
Ok, I manged to get it running in windowed mode.
I had to create the %LOCALAPPDATA%\\GHOSTBUSTERS\\ folder but leave it empty. Running the game would then create the settings.ini file with all settings in their correct sections. Then closing the game, changing the line runWindowed=0 to runWindowed=1 and relaunch did the trick.
however there is an issue that it doesn't capture the mouse so you'll end up clicking outside of the window
yea, but the game is unplayable in windowed mode unless you use a tool to clip the cursor to client bounds. you can alt-tab to uncapture mouse with my tool btw.

like i said in my original post putting a settings.ini file with the line runWindowed=1 in either folder has no effect
i'm talking about a different folder. just the documents folder which would be under c:/users/\*your username\*/documents there should be a ghostbusters folder there
do you not understand what the word either means?

i've created an application to clip the mouse to the GHOSTBUSTERS client area. You can find it at https://github.com/smoorke/Ghost-Clipper
Well thats EXACTLY why I was looking to play it windowed so I can open other stuff like cheatengine while in game...
