• Delete plutonium and plutonium.new (if you can't delete them, restart your pc and you should be able to)
• Download the launcher from here and try again https://cdn.plutonium.pw/updater/plutonium.exe

Dss0 I don't see the plutonium.new in my pluto_t6 folder

[Dss0]

M508 Just delete plutonium then.

Dss0 I just keep getting this

Crash ID: 7ca1a6ddbb014c0f9398d7d917edce90
Plutonium.Updater.Core.Models.UpdateException: Failed to update file bin/plutonium-launcher-win32.exe ---> System.IO.IOException: The process cannot access the file 'C:\Users\Adil\AppData\Local\Plutonium\bin\plutonium-launcher-win32.exe' because it is being used by another process.

M508 follow this video guide https://streamable.com/5giauo and try again after that.

Dss0 I have another antivirus other than Windows and I can't turn that one off.

[Dss0]

M508 You're gonna have to exclude C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Local\Plutonium from scanning otherwise the game will most likely not work. I don't know of an antivirus that doesn't have an option to exclude files and folders.

Dss0 It worked fine yesterday. And I didn't have any scanning on and I still don't.

M508 Well this exact thing happened to ppl using windows defender, it stopped working one day because defender updated it's definitions (as most av's automatically do) and detected the bootstrapper all of a sudden. Which av are you using?

I'm also having this same issue. I have followed a few threads, as well as the video guide above and it still isn't working.

[Dss0]

Vyros try deleting C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Local\Plutonium and running the launcher as admin.
