#Launcher Installation Problem
worn mica
Today i tried to update the mine in abyss launcher but at the end of the installation this popped up
spiral dock
make sure the launcher is closed before update, restarting your computer could help too
worn mica
Ill try to restart my pc but the launcher was closed when i tried it...
spiral dock
actually it is warning you that something else is using a folder under overwolf directory which makes me think that's interfering somehow, you could try exiting that app
we dont touch anything there though so that's really odd ig

actually it is warning you that something else is using a folder under overwolf ...
Exiting what app? i had nothing open...
spiral dock
overwolf
worn mica
It still doesnt work
spiral dock
try the restart then i suppose
worn mica
I exited overwolf but it still says that its unable to close everything
worn mica
try the restart then i suppose
I just did
spiral dock
very weird that it's throwing that first error but it makes me suspect it's still something overwolf is doing, maybe some monitoring or smth
id assume it's set to run on startup, perhaps you can turn that off and restart
actually if the first error doesn't show up again then it's likely something else rn
worn mica
I tried it again with the other option and now its taling about steam.
worn mica
id assume it's set to run on startup, perhaps you can turn that off and restart
Nope. Overwolf doesnt run on startup. I just looked it up in task manager
spiral dock
huh maybe it's this default windows installer being stupid or smth
@deep bluff you ever seen ppl having similar problems?
deep bluff
nop
worn mica
Its always me having problems that no one else has ):

idk why launchy would try and access a steam file
worn mica
Yee, thats a good question.

Is it possible that i got hacked and the Virus is somehow preventing me from installing the launcher?
spiral dock
unlikely but could be an antivirus
worn mica
Do you have an idea how i could fix it if its an antivirus?
spiral dock
disable it, install, enable it
worn mica
I tried everything. Nothing works....
spiral dock
perhaps fully uninstalling launchy and reinstalling it?
worn mica
How do i do that? (sorry im stupid)
deep bluff
How do i do that? (sorry im stupid)
just like you do any other program. open the windows uninstall menu and find the launcher there
running the installer might also give you an "uninstall" or "remove" option
worn mica
Ok i just tried and i am literally unable to uninstall the launcher because it says the same thing as when trying to install it: "Another application has exclusive acces to the file....."

gosh and i just wanted to ask what could be the reason of my mods not updating the fabric file
worn mica
Could i get a list of all the mods that are on the launcher because im unable to install it.
I want to manually install all the mods.

I suppose one thing I didn't suggest before is deleting the files for current launcher install
worn mica
I suppose one thing I didn't suggest before is deleting the files for current la...
i did that even before i opened this chat...
Or do you mean the .mineinabyss folder?
