Plutonium

I followed all the necessary steps to create and set-up a server, but when I ran the server it gave me the "Heartbeat Successful" message. Keep in mind the server is the only thing up ATM. I open the Plutonium Launcher and I pressed the play button on the BO2 Zombies menu, the cmd shows up for 3 seconds and disappears along with the Launcher. I have my ports forwarded to 4976-4990. When I play the game before I start the server it works but when the servers starts, the server doesn't pop up when I tried to look for it. Is there any solution to this issue??

Press your windows key and type in "Virus & Threat Protection" Then click "manage settings" (It's coloured blue) Under the exclusions tab "add an exclusion" select "folder" and set your Pluto game folder as the folder. Launch the updater and it should work... I had this same error happen to my friend and that fixed it.
