same issue, been try'n to play for weeks.. gets to loading and crashes. I think i got to play once in that time for bout half an hour only to find out DS9 under siege still isn't working for RA :-/
EDIT: just tried in safe mode and got in but it then crashed a few seconds later.
trying a force verify now but doubt i'll make much difference.
I dont know what has happened to the launcher. I have been playing STO since Beta and NEVER had any problems until September. Now the launcher crashes and I cannot get past it. If anyone has Ideas or fixes please advise.
Okay, I seemed to have been able to fix this problem. I looked through the forums and read something about "run as admin". That works for me.
Right click the STO.exe and "Run As..." then choose Administration. Enter your admin password and see if that helps you guys. Like I said, worked for me in STO and CO.

Didn't work for me. Launcher stills crashes after username/password insertion.
Having the same problem on STO holodeck, and Tribble. Seems to be stuck on "patching" Holodeck. Won't switch to patching tribble. Hitting cancel doesn't work.
If I wait long enough it crashes and asks me to send a ticket to cryptic.

You can add a little helpful step here. Right-click the shortcut to STO, and choose 'properties'. Choose the compatability tab, and at the bottom there is a box to check 'Run as Administrator'. Once you do that, everytime you launch it, it will run it the way you want.

Tried the "run as administrator" no luck

I'm not sure if a proxy server will help you, but you can try that. Click 'options' on the launch (small link at the top, and choose a proxy server).
Additionally: Inside the options, in the advanced section, add : -console (and click 'Ok')
You can try disabling steam/x-fire , too. Could help, if applicable.
