Hey, so I signed up and downloaded the client a few weeks ago so it's safe to say i'm very new here, and with the whole DDOs thing it's only recently i've actually been able to click on the connect button on the launcher. I've noticed I get an error message whenever I do, it's this:

Error starting: System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path 'C:\Users\Ryan\Desktop\Warhammer\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 sure if i've **** something when downloading or whatever, but i've scoured the forums and I tried a few things and so far nothing has worked. Any help would be appreciated, no matter how condescending it happens to be if the solution is simple.

Re: First ever post, and it's me whining, not a great start.
