just a point of note, turning off the antivirus for example doesn't mean its actually disabled, the only 2 ways to know its not 100% interfering is to either uninstall it totally or end task in task manager on all related processes
Have you done a steam install and see if it has the same issue ?
Also if it is windows defender, i have seen that having private and public ticked in the game exception has helped some others with connection issues
Well I tried Win Defender Firewall exceptions for both the Launcher and the exe file were set to both private and public. No help, still get the error.
Then I tried to completely turn off Both Win11 anti virus and firewall. Then restart, and again no help, still the error.
Then I made sure my exclusions for the antivirus were set properly, still no help.
I have NOT tried to install from Steam yet, but I will and report back.
I just don't get it. What would cause just 1 PC to do this. Eliminated all the usual suspects and still the error. And what changes did I make to my PC that would cause this to happen out of the blue like this? I have been playing Swtor for the last 3 months straight with no problems, then all of a sudden, BAM, I start getting this error and can't login. Only to have it work on another PC that is connected to the same network. Truly amazing.
You aren't going to believe this. I installed the game from Steam and it actually worked. THEN I tried it from the normal install and it WORKED. Sheesh I just spent a week trying to fix this problem and that was all it took? Man sometimes these things are so frustrating.
Anyways big shout out to Proxos666. Thanks for sticking with me on this and coming up with the solution to it. I really appreciate your help. Thanks!
Glad to hear it is working again
