What An Odd Error Message.

Hi Folks

Re: What An Odd Error Message.


Have downloaded, installed the game and made sure that it can get past my firewall etc... to connect with the STO server.

However, when I try to launch the game for the very first time, it says:
" Trying to update the launcher. Please be patient. Tried connecting 1 time."

Is 5 days patient enough, or does this take longer? If I knew what it was, I might better understand why nothing happens. Any ideas anyone? Whatever it is, I note that it is hogging 99% of my CPU (when I do the Cntrl+Alt+Delete) thing. That seems odd for someting that doesn't seem to be happening.


Kind Regards
Emmily

    I get that message every now and then, but it does not hog all my CPU like that.
    If nothing happens within a few minutes, close the program, and start again.
    Sorry I can't be more helpful.

    You need to check privileges for the application and access to the internet. Run Star Trek Online.exe as administrator as your first step.
