            Thanks, it might be worth starting the MW3 Dedi server via Steam as steam will install any dependencies it needs. Then once the server opens, you can close it and then try hitting play from the Plutonium launcher again.

                That sounds more like a basegame problem then. Try to verify the game via Steam (maybe some of it is corrupted).

                Let me know if that helps, do you have Discord?

                  I am experiencing the same issue, I can go into the Pluto launcher, but when i launch Iw5 it just says "launching iw5 multiplayer" for like 3 seconds (in the Pluto client), then it freezes and the launcher exits but the game doesnt launch

                        @Mr-Android Umm, yes I think so since this has never happened to me before. I just experienced it on 28th and now again on the 29th

                        Edit: ive also seen others starting to have the exact same issue, some of my friends for example. This started just around 2 days ago

                              Hello all.
                              This might be caused by Windows detecting our new update as a virus. This is a false positive.
                              Follow the below screenshot to try and solve it.

                              The long term solution would be to add %appdata%/plutonium as a folder exception in Windows Defender or any other antivirus product you have.

                                      @Mr-Android this was my exact issue, the solution is still working in October 2020.
