Can't connect - Error message

Hello guys! Need some help over here. I'm trying to install the game, but when i press connect an error message appears.

I downloaded the game via Torrent (the link in this website), saved the RoR laucher inside the same folder as WAR.exe. The folder is in my E: drive (not my C: drive, which has windows 7 in it). I put all .exe (RoR laucher, WAR, testpatch and Warpatch) in the folder unlocked and "run as administrator". I have DirectX 11 installed. I have an Alieware with Windows 7 and a GTX 780m.

The error message is as follows:

Error starting: System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path 'E:\Downloads\Warhammer Online - Age of Reckoning\WAR.exe' is denied.
at System.IO.__Error.WinIOError(Int32 errorCode, String maybeFullPath)
at System.IO.FileStream.Init(String path, FileMode mode, FileAccess access, Int32 rights, Boolean useRights, FileShare share, Int32 bufferSize, FileOptions options, SECURITY_ATTRIBUTES secAttrs, String msgPath, Boolean bFromProxy, Boolean useLongPath, Boolean checkHost)
at System.IO.FileStream..ctor(String path, FileMode mode, FileAccess access, FileShare share, Int32 bufferSize, FileOptions options, String msgPath, Boolean bFromProxy)
at System.IO.FileStream..ctor(String path, FileMode mode)
at RoRLauncher.Client.patchExe()
at RoRLauncher.Client.Handle(PacketIn packet)

Any help would be appreciated!

Looks like the read-only (write-protection) is still active for your whole warhammer folder. Nontheless this should be covered in the >>BUT FIRST OF ALL, READ THE MOST COMMON ISSUES AND SOLUTIONS<< above your post

Sorry guys! I had disabled "read only" before posting, but for some reason it didn't (Windows...). I want back and double-checked and it was still read only. I disabled it again, and voilá, it worked.

Again, sorry for posting this thread, see you in battle!
