Please try this:

- uninstall Paradox Launcher v2 from the Windows "Apps and features" utility, if still present.

Delete the following folders if still present:

- C:/users/{userName}/AppData/Local/Programs/Paradox Interactive/
- C:/users/{userName}/AppData/Local/Paradox Interactive/
- C:/users/{userName}/AppData/Roaming/Paradox Interactive/launcher-v2/
To see the AppData folder you'll need to enable View Hidden Items in File Explorer.

- exit the Steam app entirely
- run steam.exe as the Windows Admin user
- run the game from the PLAY button in Steam
OR
- exit the Epic app entirely
- run EpicGamesLauncher.exe as the Windows Admin user
- run the game from the Epic client

IF that doesn't help, in this folder are some .log files:
C:/users/{userName}/AppData/Local/Paradox Interactive/launcher-v2/
Please attach them here.

I don't know what could be causing these errors to you:

2022-10-04 11:23:55 [daemon] [DEBUG] SEND: 48c5483e-5c36-44af-be13-2290b8a7709a error

We know our server does NOT forbid access and downloads! @Deuterium Oxide is there anything more we can look into in this area?


Try downloading the latest installer and run that:

Its worked thank you so much! my launcher version upgraded from 2021.8 to 2022.11 . but when starting the game I get an error but the launcher still opens I have a question every time a new launcher version comes I have to download the newest version myself or will it be automatically installed from steam?

 

[AndrewT]

I can't explain that new error.

I think having manually updated you should be okay from here, but let's see new launcher logs, thanks.

 

[Wazzyy]

I think when the new launcher version comes, it will be automatically installed from steam if there is a problem, I will create new thread in the forum again and here are my log files, thanks

 

[AndrewT]

Our launcher is never installed or updated from Steam per se. It is installed by files that come with the game, and updates itself using bootstrapperv2.exe that we supply with the existing launcher too.

I see no errors or problems in those logs at all, unfortunately.

If you do get any issue with a launcher or game update please let us know at that time!

Conundrum Launcher can't refresh
6.1 Restart the application. If update-related issues show up on PDX Launcher, the main thing is to close the launcher.
6.2 Incapacitate Firewall. Open the Beginning Menu, look for Windows Security or Windows Safeguard Security and open it.
6.3 Re-introduce with the most recent form.
