Error starting: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not find file 'C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Local\Temp\Rar$EXa0.291\WAR.exe'.

you have put the game into a temp directory wich prbly got deleted.

you need to unzip the downloaded file into a normal directory on you pc and put the launcher in the same directory as the game itself.

If you have the same problem, he was already answered.

Also, this sticky has all the answers to each error we know of.

That's what the huge red section with words is for. Maybe we need to make it flashing with arrows pointing at it...

Access was denied to the path or file WAR.exe!

Unblock the launcher. (right click RoRLauncher.exe -> properties -> click Unblock button)

Remove the write-protection (right click the game folder -> properties -> disable read-only) from all the files in the WAR folder and try again. You may also try running the launcher with Administrator privileges.

If you used the torrent to download the game, the torrent application may still be using the files. Either copy the entire WAR folder to a new location (if you wish to continue supporting the torrent), or move the entire WAR folder to another location to break access to the torrent.

Hi together. I am trying since hours to install Warhammer. After solving diverse problems i got stucked in here now.
Data.myp:
System.InvalidOperationException: Die Kategorie ist nicht vorhanden.
bei System.Diagnostics.PerformanceCounterLib.CounterExists(String machine, String category, String counter)
bei System.Diagnostics.PerformanceCounter.InitializeImpl()
bei System.Diagnostics.PerformanceCounter..ctor(String categoryName, String counterName, String instanceName, Boolean readOnly)
bei System.Diagnostics.PerformanceCounter..ctor(String categoryName, String counterName, String instanceName)
bei MYPHandler.MYPHandler..ctor(String filename, del_FileTableEventHandler eventHandler_FileTable, del_FileEventHandler eventHandler_Extraction, HashDictionary hashDic)
bei RoRLauncher.Client.UpdateWarData()

While this comes, Warhammer does start and comes as a black screen with 99 fps. Version 1.4.8
I am installing Warhammer in German.
So: Die Kategorie ist nicht vorhanden means The category is not available.
And bei means at.
Thanks for your help!

You need to rebuild performance counters. How to manually rebuild performance counters:
1- Go to start, and type in the search box "cmd". Right click cmd, and run as administrator.
2- Type in the command console, "cd c:\windows\system32", and hit enter.
3- Then type "lodctr /r", and hit enter.

It will take a few seconds to perform the command.Performance counters should be rebuilt. Try starting the game again.

If that does not work, type
CODE: SELECT ALL
lodctr /e:PerfProc
instead.

Or try to download and extract all files in your WAR folder
