Sorry to see that you may be having this issue.

 

As this was an old post it likely lost traction or interest as the issue would have been fixed.

 

 

Looking through this old post in  it's entirety it would be fair to say that the User had a corrupted file  in their installation and a simple repair likely corrected things for them.

 

Have you tried a game repair?, deleted the Cache files etc.. 


Alright, first off, I can barely find anything in the directory. I might (and hopefully) be in the wrong locations, but I can find nothing but the .exe file and a few others that don't matter.  I can see the ST on the bottom left of the launcher, and I can't click on the Repair button since there was no errors detected in the patch. I think the guy before me tried these solutions without any result. Do you see any solutions or do I just have to live with it?

    Morning Amir.

    the image you have uploaded "http://answers.ea.com/ea/attachments/ea/star-wars-the-old-republic-en/25270/1/19.PNG" appears to be of a folder containing "Short Cuts".

    The are not really game files but more of a redirection to the game files.

    If you Right Click the "Star Wars - The Old Republic" icon in the top of your picture , you should have the option to "OPEN FILE LOCATION".

    That will take you to where your Game Files are actually stored on your PC.

    *When trying to facilitate the level of repair that your game files appear to need, it will require that you delete specific files within your Game's Directory/folder.

    Nothing will be damaged by the process as the 'Launcher' will re-generate many of the files instantly upon the next time you load up your game.

    I'm Currently enjoying my morning coffee so I will type out a few of the things that you will have to do; USER BEWARE... First Coffee of the day comes with 'Some Risk".

    1: Lets go to your ACTUAL SWTOR INSTALL FOLDER; Right click the Short Cut and select 'OPEN FILE LOCATION'.

    *If your PC does not give you that option when you right click the 'Short Cut' (Which is illustrated by having the Swtor Icon and a arrow in the bottom Left Corner of the Icon. You can Select Properties down the bottom instead.

    **Here you will see(on the Shortcut Tab)  'Start in" which will contain the line simular to this ""C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\BioWare\Star Wars - The Old Republic"

    This is where Swtor is installed on my/this computer.

    ***You may have an "Open File Location" button on the bottom of this tab, depending on your version of Windows.

    2: Now that you are in your Swtor folder and you can see all the files and subfolders eg: "brwc_swtor.exe" "launcherDiag.exe" and another folder within your Star Wars - The Old Repupublic folder called 'Swtor'.

    Open that folder ("Swtor") ... you will now see a folder called "retailclient" and a file called "DiskCacheArena".

    We wish to Left Click "DiskCacheArena" and then click the Delete Key on your board.

    *don't stress the game will make it again when you reload the game.

    3: Now click the up/back arrow so that we are back in the main folder of your Star Wars the Old Republic directory.

    At the top you will see a Folder Called "bitraider"; we wish to delete that also.

    Now you should be able to run your Launcher (*Start your game like you Normally would) and it will automatically do a repair.

    I can only hope that you have a better time of sorting your game this morning with this information.. if not please feel free to reach back out.

    Enjoy your day.
