Error message with Launcher

Post#1 » Mon Sep 04, 2017 6:00 am

I just downloaded all required files, and I'm getting an error message when I try to log on. It is as follows:

Error starting: System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path 'C:\Warhammer\Warhammer Online - Age of Reckoning\WAR.exe' is denied.
at System.IO.__Error.WinIOError(Int32 errorCode, String maybeFullPath)
at System.IO.FileStream.Init(String path, FileMode mode, FileAccess access, Int32 rights, Boolean useRights, FileShare share, Int32 bufferSize, FileOptions options, SECURITY_ATTRIBUTES secAttrs, String msgPath, Boolean bFromProxy, Boolean useLongPath, Boolean checkHost)
at System.IO.FileStream..ctor(String path, FileMode mode, FileAccess access, FileShare share, Int32 bufferSize, FileOptions options, String msgPath, Boolean bFromProxy)
at System.IO.FileStream..ctor(String path, FileMode mode)
at RoRLauncher.Client.patchExe()
at RoRLauncher.Client.Handle(PacketIn packet)

I'm not too quick with code anymore, so please, help! :D

"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.

Thank you! I read through the sticky, but did not recognize the code. I should have just tried everything that it said in there even if I didn't correlate it. Taking off the read-only attribute worked. I'm sorry for writing a reply based on the sticky information! Again, thank you so much for helping me get into the game!
