    First I wanted to say thanks so much for spectre! It has been working fantastically, but after the last update, I can no longer open the program.

    I downloads the update just fine, and when it asks if I want to give runemate permission to make changes to my computer, I click yes, and nothing happens. I'm stuck in a loop of this over and over, I've tried to uninstall, and reinstall, and reboot several times to no avail.

    First go to C:\Users\{YOUR USERNAME}\RuneMate\logs\ and paste the contents of the most recent log. Then click Windows+R and type "cmd". In the black window that pops up type (with the quotes)
    Code (Text):
    1. "%programfiles(x86)%\RuneMate\RuneMate.exe" -console
    If it says "The system cannot find the path specified." try
    Code (Text):
    1. "%programfiles%\RuneMate\RuneMate.exe" -console
    Copy paste what shows up in the black screen here.

    Please restart to auto-update or manually <a href="Download | RuneMate">update</a>.

    The x86 version did not work, and the other one once again ran the updater, and gave me the option to run the setup.exe, but nothing happened after i clicked yes.

    It also does nothing when double clicking runemate uninstaller now.

    Try installing RuneMate through "Add or Remove programs" in Windows. Then go to C:\Program Files\RuneMate\ and C:\Program Files (x86)\RuneMate\ in File Explorer and delete whichever folder(s) exist(s). Then go to C:\Users\{YOUR USERNAME}\RuneMate\ and delete that too. This should give your computer a fresh start. Now download the Windows installer from our download page and install it. You should be good to go from there.
