Posted September 20, 2019 I've recently tried switching from using the JNLP.client to the new launcher. It installs fine, but on attempting to start a client up, all I'm seeing is a command window stating 'press any key to continue'. This is a fresh install on a Windows 1903 64-bit system. I've checked my Visual C++ installations, and downloaded a few that were listed as necessary in other forum posts I'd found, but I'm still unable to launch a client. Installed C++ editions: 2008 x86 2010 x86 and x64 2012 x86 and x64 2013 x86 and x64 2015 - 2019 redistributable x64 2017 x86 Anyone help out with this problem?

Posted September 20, 2019 When did you download the launcher? This issue should've been resolved a couple weeks ago, and the installer that you'd download from the website now should be fixed. Double-check that you're running the 64-bit installer as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 20, 2019 downloaded a fresh installer again today, I did try a few weeks back too with same problem. I'd read it had been updated so tried again with a fresh install Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 20, 2019 Windows Installer (64-bit) Installer for 64-bit Windows WurmSetup64.exe If you download that and install it in a NEW different folder.. what happens when you try to run the game? Can you show a screenshot / video or something to work with, any error? "Blank console with press any key" does not give much to work with : / Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Re-installation in a NEW folder seemingly did the trick. Apologies for not posting a pic of the error, I figured a command window (dos prompt) with 'press any key' was descriptive enough.

Thank you for verifying that fixes it, for the record, where was the old installation directory? Program Files by any chance, or the default directory, AppData/Local/Programs?

Original was in the default directory C:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Local\Programs\Wurm Online changed to C:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Local\Programs\Wurm Online NEW All works now, I'm thinking maybe the previous installation (pre the recent fix) installed in the same default directory was causing the issue Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
