Launcher will not open

@Curit

Try this open a command prompt as administrator and try the following commands

netsh int ip reset resettcpip.txt

press enter and then enter

netsh winsock reset

press enter and reboot the PC

any change ?

Nope, no change.

@Curit

I gather you have double check zone alarm ? this is the most likely source of issue

but to keep testing try the below command also in a command prompt as administrator

netsh winhttp>import proxy source=ie

if that doesn't help create a new windows administrator account and see if the launcher works there

BUMP Gang I'm getting this as well starting today. I am running Zone Alarm too on a Windows 10 64 bit machine. How do I put this line of code into the command prompt?

That command didn't help.  Here's an update on the zonealarm situation:  the launcher would open after performing an uninstall with the cleaner tool.  Reinstalling zonealarm after that resulted in the same problem.  Then I figured it must just be an issue with the latest version.  But reinstalling the previous version resulted in the same problem cropping up again - and it worked just fine with SWTOR!  I'm really at my wit's end here.  I'll try contacting zonealarm about this issue, but I see no reason why the old version would no longer work the way it had.  I'll try the account method mentioned, investigate that as well.

Update: a new admin account resulted in no change; the problem persists.  Would calling EA/Bioware's tech support line be recommended?

You can try calling to see if they can assist but if not I would wait for @proxos666 to respond as he would know more on this issue then I would.  He is located in Australia so it may be a while for a response due to the time difference.

Glad that the issue is fixed.  I'll go ahead and mark this thread as resolved.  Happy gaming, cheers.

Thanks.  I reported the issue to ZoneAlarm, and I was told the information had been passed to their development team.  So at least they're aware of it.
