They at first say they can't find the game, so I need to manually select it. After manually selecting it, they say it is invalid or missing a dll or dll.m or dll.v.

Try verifying integrity & then reset lumafly & try again

?tag verify

Lumafly Reset Commands

These should work on all platforms, as long as you've downloaded Lumafly and run it at least once. (Note: On windows you may need to have run it as Administrator at least once). If you're looking for generic .bat files, use ?tag bats.

🔹Reset Memory
-# Use this if you previously tried a different installer, or Lumafly didn't link to your game correctly.

🔹Force Mods to Update
-# Use this if it seems like you may have out of date mods, such as if you were previously using Scarab.

How to fix Installer Errors

  • Make sure Hollow Knight is CLOSED.
  • Make sure that the Installer isn't in your Downloads folder (Desktop or a folder on the same drive as your game install is best).
  • If the installer is in a .zip, then you must Extract it
  • Right-click the installer file, and select "Run as Administrator"
  • If Lumafly is automatically closing, you may be missing a system file to open it. This is currently easily fixed by running the older installer, Scarab once.
    • -# Note: it's recommended to use Lumafly overall, as Scarab has some long term issues that are fixed by Lumafly.
