I torrented the client and downloaded the launcher and this is the error I get when I try to start the game.

Error starting: System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path 'C:\Users\Justin\Desktop\Warhammer Online - Age of Reckoning\WAR.exe' is denied.

Try to ucheck the folder where WAR is installed (unziped) from read only. Ensure the setting is also applied on the files within the folder.

I am a bit confused by what you mean by "ucheck". I think I will just uninstall the torrent and do it the oldfashion way with the zip files. Not quite sure what I did wrong with the torrent, I downloaded it and then placed the RoR launcher inside of the WAR file location.

Hi, oxmor. In the following picture, read only is enabled (checked is terminus technicus - the GUI element, which allows you enable or disable this option is called checkbox). You have to disable it (uncheck).
