Help!! HEEEEEEELLLLLLLPPPPPP! I was playing just fine with FGU, I have a campaign I've been GMing for the past two or three months. Today I tried to download the Skitter Shot, Skitter Crash, and Skitter Home modules from Steam, and after installing them the Updater "Failed to launch Fantasy Grounds."

I've tried unistalling it and installing it again, installing from Steam and from the Fantasy Grounds page and nothing has worked.

I suspect your security software has quarantined the update. Check your security application. If FG is already whitelisted, delete the entry and re-create it.
