An update error occurred

[canicus]

A few people at least are getting "An update error occurred" in the launcher. Anyone know what is going on or(hopefully) a solution?

Game servers are up, so if you are already in-game you are fine.
Patch servers appear to be down, so the Launcher won't connect. If you are not already in-game, it seems you cannot log on right now.
Issue seems to have started sometime within the last 30 minutes.

I don't expect that there is anyone home at the server ranch to reboot/reset the thing. No budget for after hours support.

If you use Dungeon Finder and have it configured not top patch before launch you can get logged in.

totally worked for me on the desktop icon and not the task bar one.

1 right click on desktop icon select properties
2 add this the to the end of the string in the "target" field: -skiprawdownload -disablepatch
3 apply
4 right click on desktop icon and select "run as administrator"
