Patch manifest error attempted repair launcher now frozen

shadyjane62

Logged on this to patch manifest error and a request to repair. I hit repair. My launcher frozen and is stuck. I attempted every fix I could find. I then attempted to submit a ticket, but I can't get a game consultant file without the launcher. It tells me to clik on golden cog on launcher but I can't the launcher back. It is stuck on reloading. I tried uninstalling everything but launcher still running.

I also got an error at launch but mine was that the patch manifest could not be downloaded, nothing about repair though.

Have you restarted your PC?

I know this may not fix it but it is the first step tech support has people do because it often will fix an issue. I have seen someone have their game crash over and over even though they had just started their machine and game and restarting the PC rectified whatever the issue was.

Good luck.

tried restarting many times. Have shut down completely twice. Have uninstalling everything I can find, and launcher is still running, but inaccessible.

Help.

I apologize if this was meant specifically for the OP, but the next thing I tried after restarting the launcher was to restart my PC. Alas, I encountered the exact same error again.

Edit: I was able to launch the game from the exe file directly, bypassing the launcher.

I'm having this issue, as far as no repair button after letting it sit a minute mine appeared, though don't know if it will fix the issue.

This same thing happened to be a couple of weeks ago after playing for years. Last time repair fixed it.

Nope, try to repair and it paused a bit then goes back to the manifest failure error and still wont work.

Error 210 - PatchManifestError_DownloadFail

Ran the Game Consultant, Ran Tracerrt and Pathping, flushed DNS, restarted everything, all nothing so far.

Posting info from the general thread linked above.

The source of the problem seems have been identified as Windows 7 not enabling the needed TLS. It can be fixed by downloading MicrosoftEasyFix51044.msi:

I have done this and it works for me.

Tried this EasyFix thing this morning, seems to have worked for me as well. TY.

Came here to report the bug but the EasyFix worked for me too. Wtf, no updates since yesterday and yet the launcher worked yesterday? Anyway, it's working now.

Win 7, easy fix didn't help (
