Issues, Workarounds & Localization

Sorry if this has been posted before but i have tried several things to get this to work

-Downloading new repair.exe
-Running as administrator
-ESET is allowing full net and program access to eve director
-Rebooting before and after running repair.exe

Found a solution, though my error message is somewhat different than yours. The issue is apparently that the Launcher's files are corrupted.

I removed the settings.yaml file from the launcher cache directory, and then started the launcher, and it ran fine.

I suggest trying to look over your error message for a likely source of corruption, and remove/replace that file(don't delete until you've fixed the problem).

Issue is now fixed. involved complete re-install of OS, lucky enough i had images and only took 2 hours to get back on eve
