Patch 2016 & 2017: Launcher Fixes
13 November 20261 view
Patch 2016 & 2017 are out. Both fix the launcher. Quick update, your game files stay the same.
How to update
Close the game and your mannequins if they're open.
Open HauntedLauncher.exe. It updates itself, restarts and finishes on its own.
Log in and press START GAME.
Fixed
Launcher won't show up: on some PCs the launcher ran in Task Manager but never opened a window. Now it opens in the classic look instead.
START GAME does nothing: if a box is empty, the launcher now tells you. The empty box turns red and you get "Type your username first." or "Type your password first."
Login errors like a wrong password show in the same red box, shorter and easier to read.
Fewer "Windows denied access" errors while updating.
Launcher still not showing?
No window, but it's running? An old launcher can stay stuck in the background. Open Task Manager, end HauntedLauncher.exe (or restart your PC), then open the launcher again. It updates itself and shows up.
Antivirus blocked or removed a game file? Allow your game folder in your antivirus, then press Repair files.
