Game wont start

Post#1 » Fri Dec 08, 2017 2:44 am

So i have a new computer, and i decided to install ROR. i was pretty sure i did the steps right but then i got this error: Error starting: System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path 'C:\Users\t\Downloads\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)
Is there any way to fix this?
Note: i installed direct x and i used utorrent for the ror torrent and i have the stuff in the correct folder

A few things you could check,

- Uncheck the "read only" only flag from your Warhammer Online folder
- Running war.exe in Administrator mode
- Running war.exe in Windows XP SP3 compatibility mode

I would move the Warhammer folder out of the user profile for testing. For example to:

C:\Program Files (x86)\

Your original error meant that read only was enabled on key files in the game folder. Assuming you've fixed that,
the new error you're getting is DirectX related. Either install latest DirectX package or you can force it by manually adding the missing .dll file into the game folder.

Here's the .dll: https://my.pcloud.com/publink/show?code ... hU9XHc0Id7
