Greetings!

I have been following the installtion guide on this website and on the manual inside the torrent downloaded folder.
When i start the RoRLauncher.exe and iam pushing the "update" button, is starts updating for a few seconds, but then stops with a strange error message:

Error Downloading updater:
System.IO.IOException: Der Prozess kann nicht auf die Datei "E:\ReturnOfReckoning-March2020\Warhammer Online - Return of Reckoning\RoRLauncher.exe" zugreifen, da sie von einem anderen Prozess verwendet wird.
bei System.IO.__Error.WinIOError(Int32 errorCode, String maybeFullPath)
bei 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)
bei System.IO.FileStream..ctor(String path, FileMode mode, FileAccess access, FileShare share)
bei RoRUpdater.MainWindow.c7L3Zl71wSqG8TOaIO(Object , FileMode , FileAccess )
bei RoRUpdater.MainWindow.tYB114Sxk(Object , DownloadDataCompletedEventArgs )

Sorry its in german, maybe someone can help anyhow.
The first sentence basically means: The application cannot access data "E:\ReturnOfReckoning-March2020\Warhammer Online - Return of Reckoning\RoRLauncher.exe", since it is being used by another application currently. And yes i have deactivated writing protection of the whole folder and subfolders before starting the file. i have also whitelisted everything on my bitdefender antivirus.
I have also tried copying it to different locations. Nothing worked.

Hope that helps!

Thanks!
