So after endless hours of trying to download the damn client, it downloads and patches. NOW it wont run, i get a stupid message that says "Setup.exe - Application Error" and it spews out "The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000142). Click on OK to terminate the application." in an endless cycle. FIX THIS PLEASE!!!!

Renamed topic to make it clear that this isn't the garden variety endless setup issue caused by not running setup as admin. You have tried running setup (located in your RO folder) as admin right?

It makes sense that you see it come up endlessly - what happens is the client checks if setup has saved settings. Seeing that it hasn't, it starts setup, then goes back to starting the RO client. If setup chokes (what you're seeing), it will just start setup again, since setup hasn't saved any settings.

Try this:

  • Open the start menu and then choose "all programs".
  • Open the Accessories folder.
  • Right-click on the shortcut named Command Prompt, and then choose "run as administrator".
  • Answer the User Account Control dialogue window affirmatively.
  • Enter "sfc /scannow" into the Command Prompt window.

NOTHING I try works. It keeps failing the application for setup regardless of what I do and I can't TERMINATE the damn thing because it LOOPS itself. i'm done with this, I can't do it anymore it's been 2 days now that i've tried ALL day to fix it. Either fix it, come up with a way to download the client where if it stops for some reason then you can continue downloading where it last left off, or I'm not playing anymore, simple as that, because this is pissing me off.
