Access was denied to the path or file WAR.exe!

Unblock the launcher. (right click RoRLauncher.exe -> properties -> click Unblock button)

Remove the write-protection (right click the game folder -> properties -> disable read-only) from all the files in the WAR folder and try again. You may also try running the launcher with Administrator privileges.

If you used the torrent to download the game, the torrent application may still be using the files. Either copy the entire WAR folder to a new location (if you wish to continue supporting the torrent), or move the entire WAR folder to another location to break access to the torrent.

I tried what you said. The launcher still gave me an error but the game launched. Unfortunately there was no create character button. Just options for Cinimatic, Credits, Settings, and Quit. The file for the game is sitting in my downloads folder, probably wouldn't be a problem with my torrent program from there, right?

Here's the error:

Data.myp:
System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not find file 'C:\Users\Owner\Downloads\Warhammer Online - Age of Reckoning\mythloginserviceconfig.xml'.

Then, download and extract this in your war folder
