PRBF2 won't launch

Post by NiKKo »

So my friend downloaded the game, installed it via setup, everything went well. When he came to launch the game, the pc would play an error sound and display an error message saying can't find the folder ProjectReality/Profiles.

So the thing is, the ProjectReality folder was not there at all. When I sent him my folder, it also didn't work and when I gave him all the files I had, it would still display the same error. So it says "can't find the folder" even though the folder was there when I sent it to him.

He doesn't have any antiviruses at all, tried reinstalling but it gave him the same error.

I found a similar error online on a forum that didn't really give much info on how to solve the whole ordeal. It looked kind of like this:
Project Reality Log File
prlauncher.exe started at: 2020-03-11T18:22:20

Critical Error: An unhandled exception has occured. Details are as follows:

Could not find file 'C:\Users\nidza\Documents\ProjectReality\Profiles'.

Further details can be found in the following file:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Project Reali...prlauncher.log

Please report this error to the Project Reality Team, and include the log file in your report.

He is currently trying to reinstall the whole torrent and game once again. Please help if you can. :)

Thank you!! His documents were inside OneDrive and that's the reason it didn't work, he then changed the directory and reinstalled and it worked out. Thank you very much!!
