Unzip it to the HOI folder, select overwrite/Replace files.
Also make sure you select Maintain/keep directory/folder structure.
 
Just found the instructions I posted with the patch.

Install instructions: by Castellon
1) Install 1.05
2) Download 1.05C.
3) Beta files do not have an auto installer. Therfore you must unzip them into the HOI folder.
4) You should select "overwrite All" option when unziping.
5) Also select "Maintain Directory structure" or "keep directory names" however it is worded on your program that unzips files. If using XPs built in unzipper, then this is automatic.
6) THat's it you are done, enjoy playing the new patch.

Exact terms for WinZip 8.0: "Overwrite existing files" and "Use folder names".
Not everyone uses win zip though, which is why I hedge my bet. ;)

No excel is caused by not patching with 1.05 first.
But that should not occur when unzipping. ;)
 
Yup just follow the instructions I posted above.
 
The native extractor in XPpro will maintain the structure.
What you need to make sure is that you extract it to the HOI folder and not the .../HOI/something else which the extractor may default to.
 
Your most welcome. :)
