So, I ran into this weird problem today when starting up GOG Galaxy . I got a "GOG Galaxy couldn't connect" fatal error message, so I tried starting GOG Galaxy up manually. Then I got a "GOG Galaxy is missing essential components" fatal error message. I tried starting GOG Galaxy again and got the same message, but the third time I started GOG Galaxy it started up normally.

Anyone know what is the cause of the message? I'm especially curious since GOG started working without me having to actually reinstall anything, something I didn't expect would happen since the message said I had to reinstall GOG Galaxy. Could the recent update have caused this?

You are talking about Galaxy, right? GOG does not equal Galaxy.

Fixed the post to show Galaxy and also posted it on the Galaxy discussion thread as well.

Thanks.
