Launcher cannot update the game anymore

Hey, I got an error I cannot resolve. The (beta?) launcher tries to update the game but stops after few secods with an error message and retries again. This goes for more then a half hour. I restarted my computer, restarted the client several times. Also tried to ‘verify’ the client but this won’t start.

eve error

Cheers!

I had a similar issue a while back, did some research trying to fix it, tried a bunch of things, nothing seemed to work, however I think this fixed it.

In the ‘Shared Cache’ of the Launcher, try selecting ‘Fix Permissions’ option.

It opened a window and started doing something internally. I just left it alone and after a while it went away and my Launcher was able to update.

Hey, I couldnt solve this issue so I completly deleted the game and download everthing new. Now it works!

Hey i just bought a new mercedes it went out of gas so i trashed it and bought a new one… :laughing: :crazy_face:

Well, this analogy is interesting. But after trying everything I googled I got super frustated that an update of the game itself broke the launcher and you cant do anything about it. So I investet this 30 minutes to download it again.
