I followed the install guide step by step perfectly and I'm getting this error every time I try and launch and hit connect :(

I tried running as administrator and that did nothing. :(

Are you running RoR launcher as admin?

Im from USA is it because I'm in another country and I need a VPN blocker perhaps? I can't understand why it won' let me.

I also tried adding an exception to my firewall with the returnofreckoning launcher.

I'm not sure then, i had the same error message and it resolved itself when i changed RoR and Discord to run as admin.

Have you tried turning off "read only" on the Warhammer folder?

Think it's the read only issue, gotta turn that off for the folder first. GL
