So I was in game and a new build comes up. I logged out to get the new patch and the launcher is not coming up. I have waited for it to come up, restarted computer, and nothing. I am on a mac and none of my other guild members are experiencing this issue and they are on pc. Anyone else having this issue?

I have a PC and i’m getting the exact same problem. As soon as I start the application the launcher opens up but at the same time i get the crash message.

FOR MAC ONLY…..I am downloading new client from the web site. I have had to do this before. It starts up now. You will have to copy your data file to the fresh client. Make sure to put the new client in new folder.
First get the client starting to download, so it makes a gw2.dat file. You then stop it and close it out. Go to the older version and right click on it. Open package contents. The path to the dat file is: /Contents/Resources/transgaming/c_drive/GW2/Gw2.dat.
Make sure you rename the file that the fresh client made when it first started the new download. Then copy over the .dat file from inside the the old client. It will take a few min as its a big file. I should have thought of this before. But usually I only do it when the client won’t open after a patch. I am hoping this time it will fix the crashing. We will see. Good Luck
