So when I click the "Connect" button this shows:

Error starting: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Det gick inte att hitta filen C:\Users\Jakob\Desktop\Warhammer Online\WAR.exe.
Filnamn: C:\Users\Jakob\Desktop\Warhammer Online\WAR.exe
vid System.IO.__Error.WinIOError(Int32 errorCode, String maybeFullPath)
vid 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)
vid System.IO.FileStream..ctor(String path, FileMode mode, FileAccess access)
vid RoRLauncher.Hash.GetMd5HashFromFile(String fileName)
vid RoRLauncher.Client.patchExe()
vid RoRLauncher.Client.Handle(PacketIn packet)

A part of it is in Swedish but oh well. So anyways I have tried to run the game as administrator, I have un checked the box in properties, I have the launcher in the right map. So what am I doing wrong?

I may or may not have made progress, it now say that it cannot start because I dont have "binkw32.dll" on my computer. How do I acquire this? Thanks.

It should be included in the files you downloaded. I'm assuming you used the direct download method? It sounds like some of the files may have been corrupted. If it's an option for you, I suggest you use the torrent, that way you're guaranteed to get all files intact. You do have to turn on DHT in your torrent client because it doesn't use a tracker.

Well after alot of moving files about and reading the errors I managed to fix it.
This will actually be my first time ever playing warhammer online.
Thanks for the help.

This is quite an old topic, it's unlikely the original poster will respond. Can you describe exactly what your issue with starting the game is?
