2 years trying to fix the problem

Something on your network is blocking it. Can you access https://cdn.plutonium.pw/updater/prod/info.json ?

[shadowghost_99]

dafuq is this?

[Xerxes]

That is json; sadly chrome really doesn't respect and user settings.
Can you open a CMD window (WIN+R; then run cmd) and run the following command nslookup cdn.plutonium.pw and show us the output of it?

i found a way to get it to work i got my laptop and downloaded the launcher there and it worked then i copied it from localappdata to my pc then it works fine but when i launch the launcher that u download from the site
it still gives me the same error failed to check for updates so right now the only way to play plutonium is by opening localappdata any ideas on how to fix that?
but this time when i launch it gives me the error and afterwards says running in lan mode

[Xerxes]

You are still running in the same issue, copying the files just allows for the LAN mode to be run.
Which AV are you using on your PC?

[shadowghost_99]

AV?
what's that

[Xerxes]

AntiVirus

[shadowghost_99]

i used to have avira but i uninstalled a couple of days ago to try and fix this problem

[Xerxes]

Do you have any other "security" programs installed?

[shadowghost_99]

as of right now no

[Xerxes]

Is your PC set-up to use a proxy or VPN of any kind?

[shadowghost_99]

nope i just use a Lan cable

[shadowghost_99]

Xerxes did ya find anything helpful?

[Xerxes]

It must be a network issue, if however your notebook on the same network can download Pluto it also must be something that is different on your PC.

[shadowghost_99]

i mean i tried everything i changed my dns i tried connecting to my phones hotspot nothin it's still the same
what do i do now?

[Xerxes]

Honestly, no idea.

[shadowghost_99]

thanks for your help

One more thing you could check is the windows event log.

last resort backup your files and reinstall FRESH windows 10 then turn off your win10 virus protection permenetly even when you restart tutorials in youtube
fualty shit could be anyware and you will never know somebody MIGHT have changed some stuff could be settings registery editor edit policy services othere places i HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT and also it would be a bit lift up for your pc to have a nice boost i say watch this video if you want to get maximam out of your desktop
