TL; DR Game crashed, and now client doesn't work.

During a game of LotPK I was killed. While in death I tried to type a message to my team but the game locked up solid when I hit enter. The game would no respond and left me with a black screen, but still had the ambient music playing. So I brought up my task manager and closed it down after it said it wasn't responding.

Wanting to get back into the action, i quickly tried to boot up the client and log back in, but then something weird happened. I open the patcher to see: "Update Failed" "Unspecified error occurred. Please check the logs for more information"

So I hit send logs, go to launch the game, click the button , hear the whoosh and.... nothing. I backed out and tried it twice more with the same results.

So I tried hitting continue. This allowed me to click launch, hear the whoosh and watch the patcher disappear but that is all.

The game doesn't boot up to the log in screen and my task manager isn't showing it running.

Please advise, I'd like to get back to tossing poros at people.

Check the Processes tab instead of the applications tab - it's likely still running, just not showing. Once you end task on the process you shoudl be fine.
