I turned off my virus protection and installed it again. It's running!
I /REALLY HOPE/ that I don't have to go out of my way to turn off my virus protection and reinstall it every single time it has an error.
[Redacted] Fantasygrounds was flagged as an IDP.generic malware. Look in to that.Last edited by Lord Xtheth; December 1st, 2020 at 05:36.

Which anti-virus application are you using? Did it flag FantasyGrounds.exe as generic malware?
Apps that an anti-virus application isn't familiar with can get flagged as "generic malware", even if they're OK. If the devs know which application you're using they can reach out and see about getting their app to view FG differently.Private Messages: My inbox is forever filling up with PMs. Please don't send me PMs unless they are actually private/personal messages.

I have this problem ever since I upgraded to Unity. Trying here first even though this thread is a bit old.
I have windows 10 Pro 64bit
I have tried installing, remove, reinstalling in all sorts of combination Microsoft Visual C++ that someone pointed at as the problem. Did not work.
I have tried deactivating all sorts of firewalls. Did not work.
I have tried updating my GPU-driver. Did not work.
I have tried deleting and reinstalling FGU. Did not work.
It just terminate the program immidiatly after hitting "update" or "Settings". I can do everything else. Just was a player in a session, and I can work on my campaign as a DM totally fine. I just can't update. Or change settings.

Can you go directly to the FG application folder; and run the updater?
Paths to check are:
C:\Program Files\SmiteWorks\Fantasy Grounds\FantasyGroundsUpdater.exe
C:\Program Files\SmiteWorks\Fantasy Grounds\FGUpdaterEngine\FGUpdaterEngine.exe
If the either or both files are missing, then something has quarantined them.
Otherwise, then something on your network or machine has modified the files so that they are not valid executables any longer.
Either way, this is almost always the work of security software on your machine, or security settings on your router, blocking or modifying the files.

I tried that aswell, but it did not work.
However I think I found the problem. At least, I found the solution. I am using FG on different computers so I have the data directory in my Dropbox, to keep both computers in sync with my campaign. It seemed that the Unity program itself also got put into Dropbox. So I deleted everything and split the two like I did with Classic, and now everything works fine!

It is HIGHLY recommended that you DO NOT put your FG Data folder in a cloud folder or anyplace that it automatically sync'd. There are many many reports of users doing that and resulting in corrupted data.
If a sync happens while FG is in use, you will likely lose data. There are ways to do what you want, but you need to insure automatic syncing is off and you only sync when you know FG is not open/running. It is much safer to just manually copy your FG Data as needed.
