Daddymoroz: I have tried to run as admin, but it didn't help. I can't update any game or download anything from my library. Only from website. Steam is working btw. Any soultion?
If there's the need to Run as Admin most probably something is wrong from the start (or you are using a system administered from someone else).
Try this:
- Make a backup of the folders of your games, and of the the folder of Galaxy. (We will return here later.)
- Uninstall Galaxy completely
- Create a "C:\Games" folder with your user, most probably it will ask for admin privileges and that's ok here. (Now the
folder is of your user, everything you will put inside it won't need admin rights.)
- Install Galaxy in "C:\Games\GOG Galaxy"
NOT as admin, maybe it will ask admin rights during the install but that's normal because it needs it only for the services.
- Start Galaxy
NOT as admin, and try to install/update some small game, just to see if everything works for that (Be sure that the game installing location will be under "C:\Games" or "C:\Games\GOG Galaxy", the new created folder).
- If it works without issues, put in your "C:\Games" or "C:\Games\GOG Galaxy" folder all your old game folders.
- If during that copy it asked for admin rights, then there was something wrong in the way they were installed, and either you should download them again from scratch
to be put inside the new Games folder, or you should manually correct the authorizations of the files/folders of the games.
- If instead everything during the copy went smooth, you'll just do a "Add Games & Friends -> Scan folders for GOG games", and all your old games should appear in library again.
- Now the update system should work again
