Question - - RG Launcher Immediately Closes Upon Opening?

Is this ready to be updated yet by the reguide's launcher ? everytime I click "update" it just closes.. but never updates ?
www.redguides.com www.redguides.com

%LocalAppData%\RedGuides and %LocalAppData%\RGResourceManager
 
I feel like the AppData was hidden on my folders when I first installed and being real frank, I did a lot of googling to make it available to see in my folder, so I couldn't recount the steps, BUT I'm hoping one of these IT gurus understands what I'm suggesting here and can explain it better.

Just my two cents of help!
 
I have had an issue with RGLauncher pretty much since I started using it a year ago where if I click
1656455069494.png
and launch MQ I get this
1656455127209.png.
Running Window 10 64 bit, no third party virus scan only Windows defender with the associated folders excluded. It will still open MQ but it does not launch EQBCS, I have to do that step manually every time. I tried searching the forums but didn't see anything so hopefully this isn't already solved somewhere.

Edit: I also cleared the app data and did a reinstall of RG Launcher and no luck.

Thanks for the quick reply. I tried this last night and for some reason the box was ticked for public network but not private, I figured that would fix it but no luck.
 
back in the day it would regularly be several DAYS before mq was updated.

The time, dedication, and hard work the mq devs put in these days to ensure we have a build as soon as possible can't be overstated.

Anyone having issues with character titles not showing up after the July 20th patch day? I didn't have a problem with this until the patch day on the 20th.

I'm not sure if this belongs in this thread or not - but I too am having an "MQ2Main.dll or it's dependencies is missing" error. I've had MQ2 and Launcher working for many years and suddenly this computer (laptop is still fine) starting showing this error. I've downloaded DirectX, done all window updates, tried DISM, redownloading MQ2 (using the suggested folder pathing & creating my own folder, and I'm still not able to get past this error. Any insight would surely be helpful <3 I'm running out of nails to pull off.

you said you've tried pathing and creating your own folder - can you just confirm that when you did those things they were FRESH empty folders?

if you have done that, can you run your Everquest launch pad and do a file integrity check

Automatic Updates of Plugins:
If I rememer right, there has been a time, that the launcher, once he has updated himself, he automatically checked all plugins and triggered the update of outdated plugins by himself.
Its just a matter of qol, but on my pc since serveral updates I miss this behavior.

Is there something I can do to get the plugins automatically updated after an update of the launcher, or is this feature of automatic updates of plugins generally gone?
