    TL;DR - Windows XP can no longer be supported by the Emulator due to it's age and limitations.

     

    Users still using Windows XP will find that they are no longer able to log into the Emulator. Simply put, Windows XP is very old now and no longer supports modern encryption ciphers which most certificates (including ours) use. With Microsoft also dropping support for WinXP in 2014 and no official (from Microsoft) workarounds for this, we can no longer support Windows XP.

     

    Although third-party patches may exist to address this issue, they could cause significant security problems or be outright malicious and so we cannot and will not officially support them.

     

    If you cannot upgrade off of Windows XP for whatever reason but your system is capable of running a Virtual Machine well enough then you may have more luck getting the Emulator running in an VM (Win7 or later preferred), although we cannot guarantee good performance when doing so.

    Can't log in. she can't validate log in info. i'm putting in my account info . I'm using xp

     

    As posted by Kyp above you; as Microsoft has dropped support for WinXP, so we have also. Windows XP lacks support for some modern encryption ciphers which certificates use now which prevent the client from being able to log in. Currently there is no supported (by us) workaround for this, sorry!

    I just came back to the game also. I don't have any characters created so i can't log into game. I don't know how to get around that. The character creator in download sections keeps getting quarantined by Norton's. any suggestions?

     

    You have to log into the game in order to create a character. What problem are you experiencing exactly?

    WidowsXP SP3. Been playing for years with that and have made no changes to my system or ISP.. I haven't played since May 2017 but it worked fine then.

     

    I also tried bypassing my router and eliminated that as a cause.

     

    I've seen this happen with other players using Windows XP although I only have a theory on what's causing the problem.

     

    From research that I have done, it would seem that many certificates no longer work on Windows XP, particularly those from LetsEncrypt which we are currently utilizing. I'm not sure there's really anything we can do about this until we find a workaround for XP users but I will try to figure something out to sort it out for you.

    As Yinder brought up, you should make sure your local IP is set correctly in the launcher. If you run "ipconfig" in the command prompt, you should see a list of your adapters and ip addresses. You should be using the one for your primary Ethernet adapter. Alternatively, you can find the appropriate adapter in Control Panel -> Network and Internet -> Network Connections, right click that adapter then Status -> Details

    It looks like your settings file for the launcher got corrupted somehow.

     

    To fix this, please navigate to the "C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Local\LaunchNet7\LaunchNet7.exe_Url_1s3lfwn3oah0la3quxp3x5v4fyoq4mlz\2.2.0.0\" folder then delete the file you see in that folder (should be named user.config). Once you have done this, the Launcher will recreate it with default values and you should have it working again. Note that it is normal for you to have to point it towards your EnB client again after deleting the file.

    Yes Cipher. Just checked that to make sure. Thanks for suggestion.

     

    Are you sure you're logging into the game using your game account's username and not just your net-7.org name (your forum name)? You can view your characters and game accounts by logging in on net-7.org then going to Account -> Avatar Transfer - this will show your accounts and which characters are on each account.

    hey guys i redownloaded the emu on my new laptop did all the updates and now the emu loads but only on the task bar as an open window i dont know it that makes sense but i cant get it to pop up on the screen and if i repeatdly click enter it will load but in small boxed screen cant enter config or anything

     

     

    In the E&B install folder, you should a folder named EBCONFIG.

    Inside of this folder is a program file E&BConfig.exe - right click this file, open properties, go to the compatibility tab, check "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" and in the drop-down select Windows XP (Service Pack 3).

    Now, run E&BConfig.exe and make sure all of your settings are how you want them and try launching the game again.

     

    If this doesn't work, then please respond with screenshots that show what you are experiencing. Thanks!

    Next time this happens, could you get to your system tray somehow (that tray full of icons at the bottom right of your task bar) and hover over the Net7 Proxy icon? This will give us an idea of whether the issue is with Server<->Proxy communication or with the client itself.

     

    Edit: If you haven't already, try temporarily disabling any AVs and Firewalls and try again. Perhaps the exceptions were not successful.

     

    Thanks!

    Weird thing happened and I have no clue how to fix it.  I run EnB in a Windows XP VM and out of no where I cannot get the game to login it.  Patching works, but the patch notes window says "Navigation to the webpage was canceled".  The game loads fine but when I try to login i get an error about EA being down.  Thoughts?

     

    I've moved your topic to Technical Support.

     

    I've actually seen this issue with Windows XP systems myself. I'm wondering if it's not something to do with certificate verification on XP, since when I last investigated I couldn't find any reason it should be happening either.

     

    When I get some free time, hopefully tonight, I'll throw up an XP VM and investigate this for you.

    In the Net7 Launcher, open the "Launcher" menu (at the top left) then click "Reset Updates".

     

    This should re-download the proxy and fix your problems. If you still have the same problem after that, see if any AntiVirus/Malware on your computer is deleting it and whitelist the Net7 folder if necessary.
