Is your launcher in the same folder like the WAR.exe and not in a special folder?

Run launcher as Administrator, make sure the FOLDER (not the launcher!!!) isn't set to "read only".

This can be done by right clicking the game folder > properties > uncheck "Read Only" > OK.

As said maybe... 234x on the forum, and writen in the download page... put your launcher in your game directory.

Error starting: System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path 'C:\Users\Uw\Downloads\Warhammer Online - Age of Reckoning\WAR.exe' is denied.

@ shadow509. Next time I will not help you. Slacker.

Is your launcher in the same folder like the WAR.exe and not in a special folder?

Run launcher as Administrator, make sure the FOLDER (not the launcher!!!) isn't set to "read only".

This can be done by right clicking the game folder > properties > uncheck "Read Only" > OK.

Firstly, I'd like to thank you folks for creating a WAR private server, I truly enjoyed this game, and was saddened to hear of its demise.

Secondly, I downloaded all 10 parts of the game, and have them saved in a folder titled Return of Reckoning. Winzip will only open the first download, the Age_of_Reckoning_Client. It won't touch z.01 through z.09. What do I need to do to get them to all unzip? I'm not the most tech savvy person in the world, so I apologize.

Edit: I re-unzipped the first file 'Age_of_Reckoning_Client' and it spat out more files than before. I then moved the launcher that I downloaded into the same folder as the WAR.EXE is located. When I tried to connect using the launcher, I got this.

Error starting: System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Return of Reckoning\Warhammer Online - Age of Reckoning\WAR.exe' is denied.

What does this mean?

Also, after I posted this, I discovered these four files on my desktop. Hashdictionary.dll, ICSharpCode.SharpZipLib.dll, MYPHandler.dll, and mythloginserviceconfig.xml Do these need to be moved into specific folders? I ask because they weren't on my desktop before now.


Edit 2: Never mind, I downloaded a missing file, and it works now!
