Patching not working...

[Hand]

The most recent little patch, as below, is not loading... I do get the properly operating "ok" button to continue on, enter the account information, but then it hangs. Eventually, I get a message to try again later. Any ideas? I've had this kind of balky patch thing happen before, we all have, and it clears up eventually. This has gone on for 2 days now. I cleared the patch file on my uo program. *flaps wings sadly*

Same exact issue, and after two hours of reinstalling and patching, I still cannot connect. Surely we are not the only two people having this issue.

First, why did that last patch totally uninstall UO and why can I still not connect after reinstalling?

Is there even anyone helpful from EA that actually read the tech forum?

Have you tried deleting everything in the 'patch' folder under the UO install directory? Also, check out the stickies at the top of the forum, they address other reasons patches fail.

Thanks

I did just that. Deleted the contents of the patch file, and then ran as admin (just in case someone has the same issue).
