Age of Mythology Titans expansion cannot install

I tried reinstalling AoM after many years not playing the game. AoM installed
without a hitch but the expansion cannot install.

The error message says it found an earlier installation of the Titans
expansion in the newly re-created C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Age of
Mythology directory. The message also states the previous installation of the
Titans expansion must be uninstalled (which I can't do because it's not
there, having no listing under Control Panel\Add or Remove Programs) or to
install the expansion in another directory.

The kicker is the installation interface *does not allow* you to change the
installation directory, as far as I can tell.

Support.Microsoft.com is completely unhelpful, not only do they want to
CHARGE you for the priveledge of sending their support people an email, they
don't even have a listing for AoM at all! I shouldn't be surprised but I am
this close to tossing this old game in the garbage. Any help?

SORRY FOR A REPLY 2 YEARS LATER BUT FOR THOSE WHO STILL HAVE ISSUES WITH THIS SHOULD:

1)GO TO SEARCH

2)TYPE - triggers

3)delete "triggers2" when it comes up

4)Reinstall.
