Found the lancher to install the game. It getting buried under multiple files is bad design

Looks like you have a corrupted game installation. I would save any personal info (binds, costumes, window layouts, etc), delete the Homecoming folder, download the installer from here and install it again.

[GM Crumpet]

Download the launcher here https://manifest.cohhc.gg/launcher/hcinstall.exe

 

Make sure you don't put it in a protected folder like desktop or documents, the default is normally fine.

Perhaps do a repair before a full rebuild first?

I am getting this after downloading the launcher posted above.  I was on the game exited and then tried to  log back in the play on a different server and got an error problem with shortcut.  Tried launching in the HC folder some error.     Any suggestions?

Delete the 3 launchers shown and try again for grins. Also, make sure you've whitelisted that Games folder in your AV / firewall as some AVs like to smother legit apps.

yup, AVG flags the homecoming launcher and some files specific to that launcher and keeps deleting them if not whitelisted, oddly only the Homecoming launcher not other launchers, but other launchers arent recommended for Homecoming and could stop working for Homecoming any day
