Re: Installed Anthem Demo, SWTOR stopped working, Origin interaction?

@TeigeBerel 

All good understand

If you press the windows key and type reliability , have a look at any recent entries listed (if any) it may provide more information on what occurred 

The memoryman.dll should be seen in C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\BioWare\Star Wars-The Old Republic\swtor\retailclient

now the first error you got can be a software conflict or caused by the antivirus/firewall too 

I guess from here if you are not using bitraider then we can take that system to a full clean boot per this link and then see if launcher.exe launches , use launcher.exe in the swtor folder as opposed to using a shortcut for the moment too and right mouse click on it and select "run this program as administrator"

Edit - just to confirm the launcher is now working on the re-install ? or was your issue on clicking play ?

    The launcher did not even start up!

    Yes, I am aware that's where the dll should be, the question is: Why did it disappear when all i did was install the Anthem demo?

    No, the first error can't be caused by the anti-virus/firewall because they are the same as before, no settings were changed by me and I didn't get that error before. Or would installing the Anthem Demo/using the origin launcher change any of those for me?

    This conversation is feeling a bit circular.

    I have now reinstalled the game, but thanks to the download link on the SWTOR website, I now have the bitraider client... AGAIN.

    Would it be too hard to update that link?

    Do I feel like downloading the full thing again to get rid of Bitraider again? NO.

    At least the game is working now. :\

    That sort of error has been seen before, example link  appears a repair sorted that particular case

    My thoughts are the only thing that can physically remove a file from the swtor folder is the antivirus otherwise a system file error/corruption may cause this too, was memoryman.dll really missing from that folder.

    Also there is no need to fully install the game to disable bitraider if you do this again in the futurue, launcher just needs to run for a few seconds then closed so the launcher.setting file is written correctly then disable bitraider as per the guide

    Not sure what you mean by update the link, there is only one setup file from www.swtor.com/download and bitraider is the default game installer, the other is no longer supported.

    and it is good to hear the game is working now 🙂
