Cannot restore Twilight of the Arnor using Stardock central archive

I was trying to restore a copy of TotA on my laptop so that I could play it on that. I had originally downloaded TotA to my desktop - had archived a copy and then attempted to restore it on my laptop.

I was unable to do this as it crashed with file missing errors. I attempted a full reinstall of TotA on my desktop machine, but then alas encountered the same issue.

Thus I have been unable to restore TotA from a Stardock archive on both machines. The log file claims that some files are missing from the archive upon re-installation. I've noted that all files are extracted from the archive successfully, so I would suspect an issue between the .xml file controlling the restore and the actual filenames in the archive. However because of the mismatch the game will not start and demands I reinstall it again.

The only workaround is to re-download the game from Stardock Central, which is a bit of a pain.

Has anyone else had this issue?

I had similar issues with Impulse installs. Sorry to hear about your problem, but as of now the best bet is to just go through the headache as that will take less time than fixing it.
