Nothing is working

Should I try downloading it from the epic store?

Sorry, not key
key means folder
but when i click on key it makes me a new floder
so dont do that
yea i was confusde
ed
youre fine brp
bro
Saucy look at general chat lol
My friend said downloading amd might work
Nah it didn’t work
can i ask
why are you skipping it
did you try this ?
just asking
I didn’t have it
No I’ll try it
its software based
Oh okay but I could run it when I used to play
umm are you talking about the hardware adress one ?
yea i dont have the option
also do put the quotations netsh advfirewall reset?
yep thats only option you need to enable
no no
bruh lmao
i dont got that option which sucks
now u became the one that pops random solutions which they might not even be related at all
where is ur game located at?
in my sd card
maybe thats why?
run this in admin cmd
WDYM Sd card
to gain users account full control permission
change here C to D
yes
and also SD cards are incredibly slow, use external ssds instead
it didnt work
i can try putting in my main drive
maybe take a look at what u typing lmfao
u only need to change one letter
oh oops
wait im so confused what do i cahnge
change
wait no
ahhh just move whole riot game folder to main drive
icacls "D:\Riot Games" /grant Users:F /t /c
just copy paste
I did tho
Man Wtv I’ll figure it out tomorrow
Its just a random ass problem
nah it's not random at all
it's an issue related to permissions
I did give it the full access
then it's something blocking it from being launched
Also didn't u make someone run those commands too that one time?
They had the same issue
no, the error is completely different
there's also a chance his filesystem is corrupted
btw the most worthy to try rn is just to simply reinstall the game at his ssds
much better performance than having the game on a SD card
An sd card?
Oh.........
:O
Also it looks the same to me :please:
Wow that ticket was a month ago
Damn
I have been here for a month
Damn
Feels like yesterday
(Not rly)
oh
too long...
Its time for my monthly salary :val_KEKW:
cuz I've tried anything possibly related, and think it may be the critical or auth tokens error appearing in different way
but it turned out wasn't
I just deleted it put in on my main drive and used epic games to download it and it works
damm...
