Launcher Issue When Starting the Game

explorer1111

I was just quickly jumping into Star Trek Online for a few fun missions and then I encountered an odd issue. The launcher began to not respond when I hit engage and then windows asked me to close the launcher due to inactivity and then when the launcher closed the game then started and then after a restart the launcher then failled to respond again; however, this time the launcher managed to recover before the windows inactivity message appeared. This is a rellay odd issue that I have encountered on and off for the past couple of days and though I do not know what the exact problem is, it is still very odd because I have been logging in through Arc and the sub launcher on my gaming laptop for years and never had this issue and the server was in a green light online state. This game is awesome, every trekkies dream and I hope this information can help fix this issue. Thank you for an awesome game and I hope this will be an easy fix.

try the exe in the STO folder... dont use arc.

That's my advice, too. The bug seems to be coming from Arc, itself, and I haven't launched through it for ages.

Arc can unnecessarily drain RAM. It's best to run the game directly that way. I myself found it much easier to locate in the steam directory.
