        1. Inside the Kanon_SE directory, is your KOE folder perhaps inside of another folder, something labeled like “Kanon Voice Patches”?

          If this is the case, which it was with me for whatever reason, the voices won’t load into the game.

          At any rate, it’s quite simple to fix. Just transfer the KOE folder onto your desktop, delete the extra folder and then reinsert the KOE back into the Kanon_SE directory so it’s right there when you first go into it.

  1. When I unzip the english patch, my computer is telling me that reallive-patch.exe is a trojan horse. I just want to double check that this is just my computer reading it wrong.

    1. I can definitely say it just only false alarm from your antivirus. I have installed it in sanbox and didnt saw one virus or malware like proccess running.

      Its very common thing that some antivirus detecting some cracking software (or software for illegal thing like patch) as malware. So it doesnt really matter.

  2. the reallive-patch.exe says that it can not be executed when moved from winrar any help would be appreciated

  3. Thanks a ton Admin. I was looking for this one and you delivered. Excellent site, but i have one minor request if you find the time and need to do so: Would it be possible to separate the 18+ and all-ages VN’s into separate categories on the dl list.

    Just a small request. But seriously this is an amazing site that you’ve put together. Kudos!

  4. Part 4 wont extract for me. It seems to be broken. There was an “Unexpected end to archive” and “the file is corrupt”

    help anyone?

  5. i extracted the english patch, but nothing happened. I disabled antivirus and the patch says “patched”, but the game is still japanese. What’s wrong? I use windows 7 64 bit.

    1. i’m using windows 7 64bit as well, and mine stops responding almost straight away… Even running winXP compatibility

    2. figured it out! copy all the files and folders that came in the patch archive INTO the kanon directory. overwrite everything that conflicts, then patch!
      game should work perfectly! (at least it is so far!)

      1. Thanks I didn’t consider copying and pasting it directly but that ended up working although it still told me it couldn’t patch it afterwards, everything is now English.

  6. whenever i try to run the game it istantly stops responding after i click play.

    I also have the trojan horse problem on the english patcher.

    Please help meeee!

  7. The voicefiles from 3 and on can’t be downloaded due to this: “This file is temporarily unavailable because there are no resources available under the owner’s account.”

    Is this something that will be solved soon or shall I give up?

  8. having a little trouble with the Kanon download. I downloaded the 3 main files and when expanded they are “KANON_SE.MDS” and “KANON_SE.ISO” Installed the daemon tools lite to make a disk image, but when I mount those two files the install screen comes up with buttons with symbols on them. I’m assuming its japanese. I’m not even sure which file (the .ISO or the .MDS) I should be clicking. I’m assuming I have to have the Kanon game installed before I can run the english patch?

    Please help, Ive been dying to try this game since I saw the anime.
    thanks

    1. Change locale to japanese ( check “FAQ” for instructions), then mount the mds file. Setup is self-explainatory ( just click next,next,next etc)

  9. I Cannt get the eglish patch 2 work and its irritating me…. What do i do? And b detailed

    Feel My VenGEncE

  10. Hi, I’ve downloaded the game, but I can’t seem to find any .exe files, I only found Kanon_SE which is an image file, should I mount it or what?? sorry I’m a noob

  11. Nvm my last post, I’ve already installed and played it by reading the previous comments 😀 Thanks,

  12. Panda Antivirus says reallive-patch.exe is a suspicious file and neutralized. I assume you check all the stuff here and my antivirus is just overreacting but I figured I’d be safe and ask.

    Thanks.

    1. Heh, just read the old comments and saw this has already been answered. Sorry for the redundant post.

  13. god i cant get it in english seriously you need to add videos to show how to get it up and in english otherwise people like me are going to keep asking for help.

  14. I’m on Windows 7 Sam, other than the name having to be manually typed in there were no problems. Everything works.

  15. Thanks for the uploads admin, still downloading the voices but I’m confident I can work everything out using the previous comments. Thank you.

  16. I think I have an unique problem…

    I downloaded the game a while ago via torrents, and a voice patch + update was already inside the torrent, so I (after raging several hours) installed the game and updated and patched it.

    now the problem is that halfway through Shiori’s route (haven’t tested other routes yet, but I fear the worst) the voices suddenly stop playing. Music and SFX is fine, just the voices. The exact moment is when you go to the city’s shopping centre with shiori to get her a birthday gift; the painting stuff.

    I’m currently trying to download the links you provided, although after part 3 it suddenly says that the link doesnt work after I waited the 120 seconds…

    please halp me. Thanks

  17. Okay, maybe I’m just unintelligent but I need a little help. This is my second visual novel, and when I click the application (to open the game), it opens reallive, but opens the other game I have instead of this one. How do I fix it? Should I just wait until I finish the other game and then delete that one, or…?

  18. Okay, fixed my other problem, but now a new one has appeared. Every time I start the game, it says that there’s an error decoding the text or something. I have the English patch, but do I need to download the voice files, too? I don’t like dubs and I’d rather avoid having to listen to one if I can. :/ Anyone know how to fix this problem? I even put all the things that came with the patch in the Kanon directory itself…

    1. Also, everytime I click the reallive patch, it tells me that the filesize was wrong or it had already been patched and it can’t patch it again. If I need to download the voice files, I will, but please no.

  19. when i tried patched the RealLIve.exce a noticed came out “the file is in use try to close it first” something like that,,please help me guys!!!

  20. I cannot get the english patched exe to work. I get “Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permission to access the item.” when I click on the patched exe.

  21. So i mounted the game and run the english patch and it says that it is patched, but when i start the game the game is still in japanese, please help.

  22. Been trying to successfully to install this game but im still unable if someone has installed it properly can please help me out. Thanks! Does the locale has to be in japanese??

  23. Worked perfectly for me. Painfully boring VN though, think I’m gonna give up. It’s been over a month and I’m still trotting through my first route. Is this why KEY games move people to tears? Shear boredom?

  24. I’m getting an error that says “Download archived file failed. Archived file corrupted or incomplete”

    any idea what I did wrong?

  25. When I was installing the patch, it’s says threat detected and it won’t let me install the game >O< can you please help me?

  26. Grrr…I’ve spent over an hour trying to get this game to work. Every time I try to play the game, it crashes right after the prologue when the protagonist says, “I pull the quilt up to my head, curl into a ball and snuggle in.” I get an error message saying, “REALLIVE.exe has stopped working.”

    I’ve tried installing and running the game in Windows XP Service Pack 2, 3, and Windows 2000. (I have Windows 7 64-bit.) Eventually I traced the error to the gameexe file from the English patch. If I have the original gameexe file in the folder (not copied from the English patch), the game does not crash. This leads me to believe that the gameexe file from the English patch is somehow making the game crash.

    Unfortunately, without the gameexe file the text only appears in Japanese -_-”

    Any tips on how to get the English gameexe file to work?

    1. I managed to narrow down the problem a bit more by opening up both the Japanese and English versions of gameexe and comparing the code. Found out that the line of code #DLL.000 = “rlBabel” is somehow creating this error. I tried deleting the line of code, but then the text didn’t show up at all, except for a choice that I presume was after the “put the quilt over my head” part.

      So maybe something’s wrong with the rlBabel file? Still have no idea how to fix the problem, though 🙁

  27. I got problem with english patch, after i patch it still in japanese language. need help or did i do something wrong.
