admiral-pasta Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 I am currently having a problem with the launcher. Ever since Alpha 12 was released (never had a problem until then), I have to reinstall the game every time I want to play it. Starting the launcher gets me the following message: "Game installation failed with an error. Could not create folder for temp files. Please try again" If I then click Play it says "Could not find the executable game file. Please repair it via Options > Repair". If I select Repair, it gives me the first error message again. The only way I can get it working is to select Uninstall, go into Files and delete the UAD folder manually and then redownload it. After doing this it works fine until I close the launcher and have to repeat the process again. Any help with this would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
