Double click the Sins_Bonuspack_104_setup on your desktop to start the installer. The game sends you to the site page that has the standalone download, so you have to manually run it to patch.

If you register your cd key with SDC/Impulse Beta, it will ask you to update automatically for future new versions.

Did you run the file Sins_Bonuspack_104_setup? It installs the update after you double-click it. If you look at the new game screen you will see it is in fact different (you can easily opt not to have pirates for instance).

The File 'C:\ProgramFiles\StardockGames\Sins of a Solar Empire\eulatxt' could not be opened. Please check that your disk is not full and that you have access to the destination directory. Access is denied

I would forward your first post here to: support@stardock.com . They can likely help you fix this. I have seen this issue on another post here or on gamefaqs.com. I just cant seem to locate it. You also might try googling "Sins of a Solar empire install error", or something.

Btw, do you happen to have the demo version of Sins installed? Some players have found they have to uninstall the demo via the add/remove programs window thing, or they could not install the retail version of Sins. I think yours is a different problem, but this might be something to try.
