Hi,

I tried to update my client today but the first time it said it was succesfull but the play button wouldnt "activate". So I closed the launcher and reopened it... It then started to update again until it said that it is unable to update and it will try to update with "more permission" or something like that. I can't remember, sorry :(

That wouldnt fi the problem either and it said that i should reboot my computer. I did so and after I rebooted it it just says "The Client update was unsuccesful" and i get an exception thrower after Step 2/4 progresses to 1485.5%:

(I can't post the excpetion as it contains HTML tags and I don't have permission to post HTML tags)

P.S.: It is installed on an external HDD

//EDIT:

I fixed that problem this way:

I read this thread: https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=87289&find=unread
and found out, that I use ESET Smart Security and did the suggested workaround in order to Fix the files via Repair.exe and then Patched again. Works like a charm!
