After purchasing/installing I cannot the application. I get an error:-

"FGSteamLauncher: Unable to start Fantasy grounds updater. Please uninstall and reinstall via Steam interface. Error 0"

I've uninstall... Rebooted... Removed local contant... Turned off update and re-enabled... Nothing...

I'm on Vista 64bit



EDIT:


Had to manually run the UpdaterEngine.exe program in the installation folder and entered my activation key etc to update the game. Hmmmm!

All working now!

Open the local content directory and see if there is an Updater .exe file there - if so, right click on it and select "Run as Administrator".

If there is not an updater file in your FG local content directory then it might be that your Anti Virus is blocking it - check your AV logs and quarantine folders.

Thanks for posting the fix you found.

After doing it that one time, does it now work as intended?

Yes, I had to enter in my activation key and do an update using the executable to update in the installation folder.
