Mine brings up the little window that says it's trying to update the launcher, downloads for a while and then as it gets to the end, throws up an error window titled "Patcher error" with the message "A file was locked that could not be open for writing."
I can't even access the launcher anymore because I can't even contact the STO server via steam. Wow, I think I'm giving up on STO for tonight. LOR is now Legacy of Dead Hamsters.
Beta, LTA, CE, Multiple preorder Versions, all Addon Packs except AoY, nearly all KDF/Rom and ~50% of all Fedships, over 25 LockboxShips, Endurer of Atari's "Year of Hell", but...

Same here, the bloody launcher kept crashing and failing to download the patch untill after the 8pm ( Uk time ) server up. Now, at 11.49 pm and the patch was 89% complete the launcher just crashed and won't restart. I'm giving up on tonight too. I knew it'd end like this when they said the servers would be down from 3pm - 8pm.
Oddly enough, it was working fine until I was changing characters at exactly 4:47 and I got "Login Failed for Unknown Reason." Tried to log in 5 times, same message.
Clearly I logged out and the server couldn't handle the rejection.
They're trying to put in a Character Slot patch and load a new launcher to speed up downloads.
STO is about my Liberated Borg Federation Captain with his Breen 1st Officer, Jem'Hadar Tactical Officer, Liberated Borg Engineering Officer, Android Ops Officer, Photonic Science Officer, Gorn Science Officer, and Reman Medical Officer jumping into their Jem'Hadar Carrier and flying off to do missions for the new Romulan Empire. But for some players allowing a T5 Connie to be used breaks the canon in the game.
