[SOLVED] BO2 won't start using the launcher
-
I had this happen until I moved plutonium launcher out of the file that you are making a path to, I also believe you dont need t6 in the same folder since we are no longer using t6, after that Id just double check in the game settings for your launcher its routed to the right folder. Hope this helps!
purah Thanks for the suggestion!
Unfortunately, putting the launcher outside the game folder, making sure the game path is correct did not fix my issue, the game still simply will not open.. -
-
cirno Thanks for the tip!
Steam was open but i'm still facing the same issue :P.. -
Go to %localappdata% and delete the plutonium folder. Run the launcher again
-
HannesC Thanks for the suggestion,
Tried that, no luck so far unfortunately.. -
The bootstrapper just opens and closes? No error?
-
HannesC The bootstrapper never closes without an error, the launcher behind it does however
-
Launcher closing is intentional, no clue what's the solution sorry
-
HannesC Yeah figured as much just want to give as much info as possible, thanks for trying though!

99.9% sure this is related to antivirus.
What antivirus have you got?
Is it the only antivirus you have?
What folder exceptions did you add? -

Also check to see if you have any of these:
SONAR RADAR, SONAR STUDIO, GAMERSFIRST IV, NAHIMIC, ADVANCED SYSTEMCARE ULTIMATE, PREMIER OPINION are some of the programs that cause issue, uninstall them if you have them. -

The only program close to that would be Driver booster, i've uninstalled it and tried launching the game but the issue persists

eXothicc I can only assume it is your antivirus. Even whitelisting is not enough for some antivirus softwares. Could you try uninstalling it?

H3X1C Ah yes, i uninstalled Sophos and restarted my PC and i can launch the game, windows defender currently in use and causing no conflicts so i guess there is an 80% chance it was my antivirus, even though it was disabled and the folder/plutonium bootstrapper was whitelisted,
Thanks for your time and assistance!

eXothicc It was the antivirus. I would be suspect of an antivirus that doesn't disable when you disable it...

H3X1C Indeed, well the software was recommended to me by a friend that works as security, the program never wronged me before,
Regardless, I've marked the thread as Solved, if it's any bit of help, feel free to use any info from this thread for your FAQ.
