    @Alyx-J does the path where the launcher sits or your windows username contain special characters?

        @Alyx-J can you post a screenshot of the folder the launcher is in with the file path visible? also try running it as admin. If it still doesn't work i have no idea.

            @Alyx-J this is Plutonium files, you don't need to go here.
            He asked for where your game is saved. Read below

            How to fix Setup not changing to Play when selecting the folder?
            This happens because the path to your game has non english characters.
            For example C:\Téléchargements has 2 é characters which don't exist in english so the launcher cannot read it.
            Change the folders names in the path to make sure it has english characters only or move the game to a folder which doesn't contain any special character in the full path
            For example C:\Telechargements or C:\Games

            It can also happen if your path is too long.
            If your path doesn't contain special characters then try to move your game to a shorter path and reselect it

                        @Alyx-J what is your antivirus? Please mention everything even if it's disabled
                        Also click on your profile picture top right and screenshot the 2 versions displayed at the bottom core and launcher

                            AVG probably messed with something, I don't see how you don't even have the game settings button
                            I would recommend uninstalling both, or at least AVG (which is a terrible AV anyways)

                            Then restart your PC, don't start the launcher and delete the Plutonium folder found in %localappdata%
                            This will delete any data/setting you have so backup anything important

                            Then run the launcher again, let it download everything, login again and see what you can do

                                @Alyx-J as a last resort workaround you could manually edit the launcher config to fill in the path. Go to %localappdata%/Plutonium and open config.json with a text editor then manually type in the path to your bo2 game folder.
