Olympus is having a problem and needs to be manually reinstalled.
Here are the steps explaining how to do so:

  • Download the latest Olympus stable build. You can find it here.
  • Open the zip file you just downloaded. Go to the folder inside it, and open the dist.zip inside.
    • Those are the new Olympus files.
  • Press Windows+R. Type in %appdata%\Olympus and press Enter.
    • If you do not have a Windows key, right click the Start logo, and click on "Run".
    • Those are the old Olympus files.
  • Delete all the old Olympus files, and replace them with the new Olympus files.
    • If done correctly, all the new files should be in the same place as the old files, except that they're newer.
  • Launch Olympus.
    The reinstall should now be complete. You can verify that by clicking on "Options & Updates".
