Error in the update

[Anitachan]

The game cannot be updated. I press Start, the update starts, and when it finishes, in the box where the START button should be, there is a red box that says ERROR. Below, I searched for the REPAIR button, but the same thing happens. Any possible solutions?

patch may not be fully updated? I'm getting the same thing

This is probably due to the APB_Catcher still being open in the background. 

Restarting the pc or killing all the APB processes should allow you to update.

That could be possible. In my country the patch was from 6am to 10 am. Now we are 1.17 pm, that´s why i decided to update

I've opened task manager, killed two APB error processes. Game started normally after that (where "normally" means "re-installing DirectX upon every launch")

The process is called

APB_Catcher.exe

It might not show up in the task manager, then you might need to grab process explorer from the microsoft website.

Had this happen before where the process could be killed, but now had it happen where it was hidden instead, Process Explorer as @Kevkof mentioned though [APB_Catcher] seems to have killed itself randomly after a few minutes.

 

This can happen anytime someone launches the game while forgetting there's a patch day, due to the process remaining running after closing the game, so would be wise to address this soon.
