DDO launcher crashes and won't complete update. I tried running it as administrator and that didn't help.
There was a brief message about an error decrypting files, but now it just crashes before it gets to that error.
Any suggestions? I saw a few other posts with update issues but no solutions given.

You may have to uninstall and reinstall the launcher completely.
Those are not pebbles surrounding the urn filled with Human teeth. They are megaliths!

I found that if I was VERY fast I was able to get into options before the launcher crashed and use the repair installation option. It didn’t take too long to reinstall files.

Oops. Well that sucks. It didn't occur to me that the launcher and the game files may be the same thing. Originally Posted by adamkatt

So glad it helped! Originally Posted by Zotai

The repair option probably compares files' checkcodes or something to update only what could be corrupted or outdated. *shrugs*Ghallanda (38): Vilas, Alphon, Whelm, Thaylan, Tyclmi, Amgine, Talc, Dedlee, Payle, Darell, Talenta, Zhen, Thrane, Arrith, Durdyn, Magefyre, Necrophil, Tulgey, Borogove, Hasugi, Shawal, Hailestorm, Branthan, Lightningbug, Bettercall, Elecktric, Zardu, Zergworthy, BrotherOf, Missadventer, Bytemy, Demogeorgia, Tizen, Warrcore, Permadeaf, Fullmettle, etc...
