SWTOR 100% and still can't play?

So, I've been having a lot of trouble installing swtor, and I've tried 3 hours worth of fixes to attempt at fixing the problem. I finally gave up and copied the game files from my brother's computer ...

    One symptom of 100% complete and no play button is if the windows service called Bitraider Mini Support Stub Loader service is not running.

    Press the windows key + R type services.msc (press enter)

    Scroll down to Bitraider services and ensure this is set to automatic and is enabled and running.

      I fixed mine with something like this:

      I launched brwc_swtor manually, then launched SWTOR via desktop icon, waited for BR to complete its current task.  clicked whatever came up when it was done, canceled the window that asked me 'where is SWTOR' after BR was finished, the red portion of the SWTOR launcher reversed itself to 0 after a short pause then it did a 'verify', another short pause and I had my play button back.

        this worked all of 1 time, after reboot, was right back where I started, all it did was maybe end the stalemate between BR and SWTOR launcher, if you WIN+R and you have the BR service running then most likely BR is the problem, the more permanent solution is to delete the BR subdir in your SWTOR game directory then reboot, launch SWTOR and let SWTOR launcher re-build BR.
