Symlinks not allowed.

Why do you have symlinks?

[Bullseye2550]

I dont know. Yesterday it worked, didnt install anything, only the windows update.

Reinstall didnt work.

Delete your profiles in documents/project reality

[Bullseye2550]

nope, didnt work.
seems to be a problem with the launcher, if I go to options i get same error.

[AlonTavor]

Apparently windows 10 moves things to temp folders when upgrading and then moves them back as symlink. Find out what that piece of shit OS did and revert it.

If all fails or you have no idea what I'm talking about, create a new windows user.

Closing OneDrive fixed it I think.

win10 is absolute garbage , never ending useless updates that you can't turn off , Privacy don't exist and the OS does shit on your behalf all the time and restarts outa nowhere only to corrupt the shit that you were doing before , i recommend going back to the almighty superior win7 it's still supported until 2022
