Happens to me a lot on the PBE the only way that has worked for me has been re-installing.

Ripster11/7/2014, 6:02:20 PM1 votes

Completely un-install and reinstall. Will fix until next patch. Recurring problem with riot patching.

Sometimes, it just takes a while for the download process to complete. Also, though, I don't think doing this is a good thing, but I find it helpful as well if the launcher gets stuck on a %, then double-clicking on the LoL icon on your desktop will usually get things working again.

I had to DC in my game because of outragous lag then I couldnt get back because I had to scan files and It was Stuck at 33%. Please upvote this, after two days of trying I still cant find a solution.

Also what we have in common is that we both have MAC clients.

I scanned 15K + files TWICE and at the end got a message about an unspecified error that couldn't finish the patch. So i re-installed and went through the same process, only to get the same error again. I understand that people might get bugs, but I am really sad that I am going to miss my Uni team tryouts tomorrow. Hope this gets fixed soon for all :)

wow guys the solution is that you have to wait atleast 1hour max! give it time. be patient . worked for me. just always keep the screen on or like stay on the computer until it is ready! mine was ready at like 4000+ files scanned until i could play JUST WAIT AND YOU WILL GET IT!!!!!

anyone still having this problem i read a solution online somewhere and it worked for me go to control panel go to network ant internet , internet options , from the screen that pops up go to the connections tab , at the bottom of the connections tab there is a button that says LAN settings click that then make sure the automatically detect settings is not checked that is all thank you for you're time

here is link to where i found it i know it says for World of Warcraft but it works on league of legends too

So, this didn't happen to me when I got the first 4.19 update; but when I had a bunch of crash issues today I deleted the game and redownloaded... and now I can't get past 33% either.

So here's how I fixed the problem. First make sure LoL is completely uninstalled and the Riot Games folder is deleted along with all of its contents. Then download and install the game on a separate computer. (Make sure it works) Copy the whole Riot Games folder from the working computer on to a thumb drive. (Around 5gigs free space needed) Copy the Riot Games folder from your thumb drive on to whatever drive has enough storage. (Mines was the traditional C:// but not in the Programs x86 file)

Run the game from within the Riot Games folder under admin.

So this happened to me twice on two different laptops. Luckily I owned a desktop which ran the game without a hitch.

I hope this helps someone cause it sure caused me a major headache when I couldn't play on my day off. Have fun!

This just happened to me as well. Hopefully there will be loss prevented but I highly doubt it.

disconnected while playing in a series so i doubt i'll get ranked rewards. Edit: The amount of time it takes for me to get back is approximately 25 min.
