Hi,

Already tried to reinstall I even searched for other presumed solutions only to find myself having done everything correctly and having the launcher in the bin file where it should be but i still get these problems.

You played PR fine recently, right? What triggers the message above and when did it first come up?

That's when it can't find PRBF2.exe.
Do you have any special characters on the path to it?

Are you using a shortcut that changes the current working directory?
