    Let's put it straight. If I don't want to use arc at all, I just try to log to PWI with elementclient.exe with startbypatcher add as I used to do for past 2 weeks - it also kicks me from the game with bug error. If I open arc - I can log into PWI,, but any action involving elementclient.exe (no matter if startbypatcher or not, if pinned to task bar etc) will always cause me the bug report error thingie. So I'm close to think the trouble is with this file. Yet I fail to find what is wrong suddenly now that wasnt wrong for past 2 weeks.

    u and em both dude
    ive always done element client since the 1st time i played and now i cant use the same method to play? ARE U ****TING ME?

    it jsut constantly says "Connecting to server" a white screen shows and nothing loads after that

    I'm surprised at all the trouble and extra modifications everyone is having to go thru. I have not modified, changed or tweaked any part of my client or arc since I did my clean download prior to the april 2 change.

    not sure if its the internet security everyone else is using that's holding things up, or what the deal is?!

    when I go to duel client I log my main account in as per normal. then I open task manager then go down to arcOSbrowser and right click "go to details, that brings up a new list. the item at the top of the list is arc exe. I right click that and end task. yeah I get a client stability pop up, but I just ignore it. the I reopen arc as per normal again and log in 2nd account, click the play pwi icon.

    now after I did my initial update, and opened my 2nd client and got to the start window. the client version was identical to the first one that I opened. all I had to do was click start and in I went. the only other thing I did see was a message stating that I already had 1 client open, but the start button was still active.

    I go into task manager ->arcOsbrowser->goto details-> *click* arc exe. and end task; then I reopen arc, sign in 2nd account wait for update and etc. then click the start pwi button top left corner, wait for it to do its thing then click start button.

    worked out for me :D

    Ok here is what I do and it works everytime.(I have Arc installed in pwi main folder.)
    open Patcher scroll down to stringtab.
    right click, cut and then paste it into your downloads folder.
    now in win7 or win8 right click patcher.exe and click pin to taskbar.
    for win xp or vista you will need to create a shortcut to desktop and drag it to taskbar.
    Now you can open all the clients you want.
    this setup will even update pwi .
    you still have to open arc to update that but pwi will update itself from patcher.

    DO NOT DELETE ANY FILES IN PWI.
