I had the same. Reinstall of FAF did not help. Removing C:\ProgramData\FAForever did.

Would be good if this is put on the What's New page.

I had the same problem. This will discourage a number of people. I recommend a patch update that automatically does this, or quite a few people will discover it like I did...a hung load of the game.

The problem was resolved by clearing the game files

FAF tries updates is 10 seconds,and nothing happens.

FAF tries updates is 10 seconds, the update window closes and nothing happens.in FaF for more than a year playing, was nothing like this. Yesterday, the AVAST antivirus blocked the FAF and added to the quarantine. I pulled it out of quarantine, re-installed FAF 4 times and it's still not fucking working. FAF just doesn't start the game

how can I be and what should I do?
