So I stopped playing months ago after I downloaded a new update and keep receiving this error message

-
@Cyphers try uninstalling and reinstalling the client
-
Make sure to manually delete the installation directory entirely

@Rowey i remember quite a few people complaining about the same issue with the 1.15 update. might be why a lot of people stopped playing shrugs
