Troo Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 I had two launchers on the desktop this morning. Now there is only the new Homecoming Launcher. There was a little code update as I entered the game this morning.. Is it possible I missed an announcement regarding the old launcher forced removal?!

Luminara Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 We've secretly replaced @Troo's launcher with Folger's Crystals. Let's see if he notices... 1 9 1 Get busy living... or get busy dying. That's goddamn right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psyonico Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 I don't think the devs are 1337 h4x0rs who remote into others PCs just to remove Tequila. What this team needs is more Defenders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was there for years, then poof. Thanks @Number Six for the reply. @Luminara I would totally notice if someone swapped Folgers for the miraculous gadget George Clooney sold me. The crema is sooo... mmmm.. so good. Edited August 31, 2022 by Troo "Homecoming is not perfect but it is still better than the alternative.. at least so far" - Unknown (Wise words Unknown!)

Is it possible you switched desktops or logged into your computer with a different account (also would show a different desktop)? And, why not just make a new shortcut to the launcher and fuggedaboudit, since I'm asking questions? Get busy living... or get busy dying. That's goddamn right.

EmperorSteele Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 I've seen tequila remove older versions of itself, and the new shortcut is somewhere else on my desktop. I don't know how clean or cluttered your desktop is, @Troo, but on the off chance you have dozens of icons floating in different spots, maybe double check everything and make sure Tequila didn't land itself next to Hello Kitty Adventure or something?

Troo Posted August 31, 2022 Author Share Posted August 31, 2022 Fair questions @Luminara but it don't appear to be the case. It was the launcher I use daily. This computer has one account. Thanks @EmperorSteele no luck there either. 😞 "Homecoming is not perfect but it is still better than the alternative.. at least so far" - Unknown (Wise words Unknown!)

Luminara Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Just make another shortcut. Or check the trash, see if you accidentally threw it away. Go to the Tequila folder. Drag tequila.exe to the desktop while holding Alt. Drop it. You can rename it later. Easy peasy dirty sleazy. Get busy living... or get busy dying. That's goddamn right.

Troo Posted September 1, 2022 Author Share Posted September 1, 2022 1 minute ago, Krimson said: I find it unlikely it just disappeared but I can't really dismiss that possibility. You should do a deep dive into your computer. Type Tequila in your computer Search Bar. Check all your drives. Look in download folders and other nearby folders where downloads probably shouldn't go. Sometimes things can be accidentally dragged into weird places. Yep, it was just gone. Checked all desktop adjacent folders for a accidental dragging which doesn't happen but very rarely on desktops (unlike laptops) but I checked anyway. Searched everything. Checked the tequila.exe.log & tequilaactivitylog files, nothing strange to me. Ran a quick diagnostics, reset my ip address, and recreated the shortcut. (will need to setup Pargon Chat, etc again later) No biggie just a little alarming. tequilaactivitylog for the past day or so: Spoiler [8/30/2022 8:27:32 AM] Loading application.

City Council Faultline Posted September 3, 2022 City Council Share Posted September 3, 2022 Tequila doesn't remove itself, some antivirus software is known to remove it whenever there's an update because they see an unsigned program downloading executable files from the internet and it freaks them out. HC Launcher is digitally signed so it's less likely to be targeted by overzealous antivirus software. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
