Re: SWTOR Stuck on core worlds while game claims to be downloading but stuck at 0.%

@BlackfoxKitsune

That Bitraider mini support service you have highlighted is not running, if you double click on it and select Start what occurs ?

What Antivirus are you using and does exceptions exist for both launcher.exe and swtor.exe ?

Nothing happens, I can only select Disable, Manual or automatic. (gotta "Love" windows 8.1 ~not~)

I am using  Avast Anti virus and firewall, Starwars is added to its exceptions, I did try to run the game with Avast disabled last night to see if it had anything to do with it, but it didn't have any effect.

I've just deleted the games Bitrader files again this morning to force a reload again. (6th times the charm hopefully)

@BlackfoxKitsune

When you double click on a service a popup will appear with a start button

However if you are doing a new game download , stop and follow this link to switch patch methods, this will permanently disable bitraider

right bitrader mini is running this morning. (at least at the moment) while I've loaded in, but it is the first load up of the morning and that almost always goes smoothly. I also seem able to restart it and press start on it this morning as well, unlike last night.

Right then, if I get this download problem again (touch wood) this re-downloading link you've just given will be my next try. :/

just an update. In the end your last idea was the one that seems to have fixed it for now. Been running it a few days now and So far no problems. Thanks for your help proxos666
