Return of Reckoning

Hi, I read several other links, watched the video on installation, which seems to be out of date, tried replacing my AUDIO.myp as recommended in the other topic about sudden crashes, and I am still having issues.

From the error message, it looks like maybe windows defensder or something is killing it? Have you seen anything like this? Apologies if this is somewhere stickied and I did not find it.

I am a first time player, and I installed by downloading the installer instead of Torrent. Should I consider wiping clean and doing it Torrent style?

Ok, I fixed this, it turns out it was Windows Defender. It fails to register RoR launcher or executable as apps, and offer to let them through the firewall. I manually located the launcher, WAR and WAR-64 and gave them access, and I am able to play for more then 1 minute at a time.

Not sure if this is worth adding to common issues or not. Thanks to anyone who spent time trying to solve this!
