Unable to launch game from FAF client
-
Hi all, I'm hoping someone can tell me what's going on with my game. I'm unable to launch a game from the FAF client, and it's currently giving me the error below. Let me know if more info is required to pinpoint the issue. Thanks!
Client Version: 2025.2.1
java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "C:\ProgramData\FAForever\bin\ForgedAlliance.exe" (in directory "C:\ProgramData\FAForever\bin"): CreateProcess error=740, The requested operation requires elevation

You do not have permission to run it.

As in I'm missing admin permissions? I've been having trouble with my PC recognizing my account as administrator, even though it's the only account and it says it's the admin account. Could that be the cause?

Hi, im also having problems with the FAF client (2025.2.1). It has worked well for me for a couple of years, including on my current laptop. But at some point 1 month ago it stopped launching the client (no errors or anything, it just doesnt open when i click on it) when the new version 2025.2.1 became necessary i think. I deleted the client and the original game several times but that doesnt seem to work. it does launch the original game when i open it from steam but not the client.
In the past ive already linked steam and the faf client and i have a faf account:
