Over the past week I've been re-installing a number of library games to a new drive. Initially things seemed to go well, but within the last day or two almost every game installation fails...

... some failing within seconds of starting downloads.

So, I try to uninstall and begin downloading / installing again...

... failed to uninstall!

(BTW, the "retry" installation button on the "warning sign" icon does not seem to do a thing.)

This has happened on 5 cued games consecutively.

So have all games failed?

No, the final game in my cue seems to be downloading and may potentially install (we'll have to see).

Not being able to install is one problem, but not being able to uninstall!?

I'm baffled.

I thought I was the only one. I'm struggling to install any type of game. Recently, I tried to install Pathfinder. Downloading around 30GB only to be greeted with "failed to install" message.

You're not alone. I keep getting failures after failures after failures...

Seems this is a recent problem. Never had an issue in the past with installations.

Literally the EXACT same issue. For the past 2-weeks and I've been having a fucking absolute headache trying to figure out wtf is wrong with this stupid ass Galaxy 2.0 Client.

All I've come to that has gotten me at least to download Games up until 3%, from then on they stop and the Client disconnects from GOG-Servers and won't let me re-connect, until I restart and then over to 3% again... is that this stupid ass Client wasn't coded with Mandatory-ASLR Antivirus security-measures of Memory-Shuffling in-mind.

I overrode every instance of Mandatory-ASLR and set it to off. Which seems to get the Setup installer to stop giving the 0xc000005 or whatever the fuck ERROR so that the thing can at least install the Client.


Then however-- the issues with Downloading the Video-Games themselves comes along and fucks everything up. One can literally not install the Games from the Client, one has to download the Offline-Installer for each Game from the Browser-GOG which is fucking absolutely pointless to have a goddamn Client in the first place then.

People have such Low-Standards for CDPR that they settle with this mediocre bullshit and bugs for the Client, with Shoddy Forum-Workarounds that don't even Fix the fucking Client, but instead just tells you to use methods which negate the existence of the whole Desktop-Client itself...

Literally no other Platform, from LaunchBOX; Steam; Uplay (Ubisoft-Connect); Battle.net; Origin nor even fucking Epic-Games gives any of these shit Errors.

-and to make it all worse, every-time someone brings up this Fact- they get shot-down by braindead Coporate-Droid ConsOOOOOOOMer N.P.C.'s who all go through the Dialogue-tree of, "Don't ask Question, just conSOOOM Product"; "Well then go to those Platforms if they're so Good"; "Vote with your Wallet"; "Whine More" as if they're going to get some special-treat from CDPR for letting themselves get buttfucked.

Motherfucker, I AM VOTING WITH MY WALLET you braindead twat. That's why I chose to BUY GAMES ON GOG, however having a broken Desktop-Client which is defended as not-needing fixes, YESTERYEAR, when it clearly does is a sure way of doing to the whole Shop platform what happened to the shit game that is Cybergunk 7777.

You probably already tried it but just in case... definitely try making sure that all of the relevant folders and executables related to Galaxy and its games are whitelisted in your security software.

I had an issue like this at one point and the only thing that truly fixed it for me (as per recommendation by GOG support) was to reinstall Galaxy. I've only had to do that once, though, thankfully. Chill. Galaxy 2.0 is still in beta. Do these bugs irritate? Absolutely. Do they need to be fixed? Definitely. Is it a negative reflection on GOG that these bugs exist? Not really. Does it mean that someone is a "ConSOOOOOMer N.P.C." (whatever the crap that means) for encouraging people to be reasonable and not fling the hate because of a bug? Not in the least.

Like I said, chill.

I'm fairly certain that you're not supposed to be on these forums if you're younger than 13.

...and I'm fairly certain, that "The Client is in BETA" is not an excuse for not Fixing it— but here we are.

P.S.

Saying people are under-age because they called out how you unnecessarily defend a Corporation like a Droid, is not a comeback to be proud of or something you might want to signal to people, 'old-man'.

I never said they shouldn't fix it, I'm simply saying that you're acting like a child plugging their ears and yelling at the top of their lungs because they don't want to hear what others are saying.
