Launcher Update Issues

o/ CCP and others!

I am trying to patch my game up to play Oceanus but my Launcher goes through an update, and closes. Whenever I restart it, it just switches back and forth from "Installing Files" to "Downloading Launcher Update" very very fast.

While it's doing this, it takes up about 12% of my CPU and about 100MB of RAM. It will do it forever if I allow it to.

After closing it and reopening, it downloads a Launcher update and closes. Upon reopening, the cycle begins again.


I have tried the Repair tool twice, the first time it downloaded about 700MB (probably the Oceanus update itself) and the second time it failed after a 25MB download.

Actually just now when I tried to close it, I get a Microsoft Visual C++ Runetime Library error message. Runtime error, terminated in usual way.

Below are the log files.

Thank you for reading and fly safe.

I was hitting the same thing. Logs indicated a failed uninstall of my current launcher.

I then used the link in this post to install the new launcher, and now i appear to be patching correctly:

BTW, installing the new launcher will wipe all your old launcher logs, so I can't post my logs as is getting asked repeatedly in other threads. Definitely something about a failed uninstall.

Thank you, this did it for me. I just downloaded the launcher setup and used all the defaults, and it updated my launcher and made it work again.
