Re: Swtor launcher.exe not opening??

@Internal_Organz

So no internet on either wireless or ethernet adapters , whats in the reliability monitor ?

truth be told i have no clue what i'm looking for in this reliability tool.

@Internal_Organz

Red X's in the graph usually, clicking on one will provide more details

for today anyway windows stopped responding and was closed twice. thats it on error's.

@Internal_Organz

Doesnt make sense , internet connection by ethernet should be just working, I can understand a wireless connection possibly if the credentials arent correct

You may be best running the repair install for windows 7 and then see how things stand, sounds like it maybe the less painful way forward

already doing that i'll let you know when it's complete and if i have internet again..

ok i'm back and i now have internet connection again yay!

but i still can't open up launcher.exe lol.

@Internal_Organz

and it opens in safe mode with networking ?

that is correct yes.

but won't start the patch.

@Internal_Organz

If you make the changes per this link it will start to patch , but doesnt explain the issue in normal boot

ok i made the changes, yes it doesn't because my laptop that i was on awhile ago it opened up fine in normal boot i don't get it lol

@Internal_Organz

so it is patching ok now ? 

have you run something like malwarebytes at all ?

i have before i tried to run swtor i was trying to play a game from nexon and i was having this same issue.

@Internal_Organz

If you did the repair install , then windows updates will be needed to be done again , ensure you get all the C++ and .net ones

ok will do, But here the thing what if that won't fix it? then what lol. because i had 4.5 net frame or the latest version anyway with all of the c++'s installed.

but as of right now it is downloading in safe mode with networking

@Internal_Organz

Post what the other game from nexon was called and can try and look at similarities between launchers , but will have to be tomorrow for me , after 10pm here and have to get up early for work.

The latest C++ files are at this link 

ok it was nexon launcher and riders of icarus. that was the only other game i tried to play before swtor

@Internal_Organz

what is odd is it works in safe mode with networking

When you go to the clean boot there is definately no other 3rd party apps running even the Antvirus or any motherboard apps like MSI afterburner.

Initial look both games use Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable 2010 package but then why is it working in safe mode ..... 

sorry have to go

ok we can finish this later.

@Internal_Organz

All windows updates done ? 

Did you try re-installing or repairing C++ 2010 just in case 

hello and yes windows updates are complete and i have all c++ up to date aswell.

@Internal_Organz

can you post a dxdiag just for info per this link

Simple thing to do as well is right mouse click on launcher.exe in the game folder and select properties , go to the compat tab and tick run as administrator and click ok.

also if there is a patch folder in the main game folder delete it.

have to go again sorry after 10pm
