The laptop I'm on right now died on me in Feb 2016. Just before that a glitch kept me from getting the launcher open for a while. After countless reinstalls and redownloadings I gave up. The computer I used since then is now toast and for giggles I dug this old laptop out of my closet and managed to get it working. Only problem was I still couldn't get one of the patches to load right and again the launcher wouldn't open. I tried over and over, everything I could think of. I've been checking here for possible solutions for days. I don't know what you did, but I tried yours and it actually worked, you solved an almost years long problem for me! I will literally send you 100 million (SC) for that. Just pm me a charname. Cheers!

Glad to help, welcome back to Sirius.
There is no need to send me credits, unless you really insist, in that case shoot me a PM.

I do not know, what is different, but Im not able to update from backup of pure Freelancer Discovery 4.88.1 installation. The launcher just blinks the little window and then it disapears, leaving only a process running, without any GUI.
Edit: It looks like I overlooked a window, that was for some reason under all other windows and without a hint about it in the taskbar. After confirming, the launcher updated just fine and the game works.

I had to use my Freelancer Discovery 4.89.1_2017-04-29 backup as a base (It is a backup of clean, not used but updated installation to that day.) and update from there.

Maybe it would be a good idea to update official download http://discoverygc.com/files/discovery_4.88.1.exe
