For the last hour I have been unable to get into the game because it says 'launch error' after I click on the play button. I played last night with no issues. Anyone else having this problem? Thanks.
Launch Error occurs in case your anti-virus intrudes the game files, remove them or add to quarantine. Game is missing files and stops launching.Even if you have anti-virus off, then windows defender can be scanning files and intruding.
Why anti-virus or windows defender removes the files? No, there are no trojans in there but as we are not the official server, our files have no officially signed certificate, due to it some antiviruses can react in such a way. You don't need to worry and can add files to the exceptions.Why it happened to some of you just now? Could be the av update or windows defender update. That happens to some players from time to time and we have no way to control it or resolve it on our side due to explained above reasons.How to avoid it? Add files to the exceptions or, if they are already there, remove and re-add them again, make sure all of the required files are added to the exceptions and after it start launcher and do a Repair for the missing files to upload.
The files that should be added to the exceptions are the following:- game folder- launcher.exe- archeage.exeView attachment 8779
