Hello guys, i got quite a problem here, i wanted to start Eve today, and i got a message that come from AVG (the kind i couldnt just press X to close) and i couldnt start Eve anymore, so i Restarted my computer, and same thing, Can't launch Eve from steam, quite problematic to play isnt ? i tried to uninstall it and reinstall, but nothing happen, i still cant launch eve, the launcher itself doesnt launch :C

What should i do ? D:


Edit : I can use normal launcher, problem is, my account is on Steam, so is there anything i can do to transfer my steam to a normal Eve account ? because otherwise, im in deep trouble D:

Go there, follow the instruction

now you will use normal launcher (or beta, it's better) and never use steam to launch eve again, and your life will be better for it, and earth will thank you.

oh and what you mean about AVG ... this has nothing to do with steam or eve.

you got a message "(the kind i couldnt just press X to close)" what does that mean? did you, per chance, block the download or network activity for the launcher?
go in avg and allow eve back on internet... the firewall must have not been happy because of version of the program changing
