Try to completely uninstall .NET and install it again. Its missing something that should be there.

I have the same error and log file since DLing and installing 1.6, running Win7. Previous versions of PR worked fine, other games are still working.

What .net Framework do you have installed?

Been having the same problem too, cant get past the login screen.

I am aware of another post like this, by John Doe, in which he overcame the problem by running the program as admin, however, I have tried this myself and unfortunately, it hasn't worked.

Log says as follows:
PRLauncher.exe started at: 2020-05-01T08:58:34

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

The system cannot find the file specified

Further details can be found in the following file:

[url]C:\Program Files (x86)\Project Reality\Project Reality BF2\mods\pr\bin\PRLauncher.log[/url]

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

I don't know whether this helps or not, but I ran the executable as admin, not the link.

As far as I understood the problem, the PR launcher needs to open a web browser (in my case it was Microsoft Edge, so I guess this browser served a purpose for once) and I guess if you are not admin open the browser from the application might give you trouble.

Is there any other tried and tested method to solve this problem, because I tried running the launcher as admin many times, and yet the problem still persists. There is no evident browser launch either.
