Icemoon 2 Posted August 29, 2019 Could I skip the scanning process? Periodically by using "alt+tab" the game get a critical stop. Then offered send or not to send a report with details of error. Then Launcher starts a scan-fix process and then happen... nothing. The Launcher just every time drive out my HDD and everytime nothing happens. No errors found, nothing to fix. Just some periodic "alt+tab" critical crash, which may one day be fixed. Or will be not fixed, because the reason is in Windows 10 or in some of my drivers/hardware, or somewhere else. (I heard that other players rarely get this error) But obviously it is not a reason to grind everytime my poor HDD. Thank you Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevkof 806 Posted August 29, 2019 The scanning happens due to the game having crashed, that's not really something you can avoid, but you could launch it directly from the APB . exe in the binaries folder as long as there was no patch Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There were no problems with this before. The game client crashed, okay, no problem. But don not loop a scanning process if it could not be useful. Launcher have a good "fix" button if it seems that client could have problems. Now you can remove this good button, because users are not asked if they need to fix or if they do not need. Start the fix anyway. APB . exe in the binaries is small solution, thank you. But the scann process is postponed and inevitably starts later. And ther user got waste time and waste HDD. Consider please a way with the skip of force scanning. Thank you. Edited August 30, 2019 by Icemoon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlatMan 656 Posted September 2, 2019 I have the same issue. It scans every single time I use it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Icemoon 2 Posted October 2, 2019 you can update your client with launcher. Next step inevitably starting scan. You can clouse launcher - stops scanning. And then can start apbprogram. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Icemoon 2 Posted January 16, 2023 when an error occurs, the game client deletes the ClientFiles.xml file in the root folder. After scanning - make yourself a copy of this file. The next time the game crashes (and deletes this file) - put it back and bypass the notorious scan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
