I've just reinstalled osu after a long time and it keeps running the updater. It runs until it reachs 100% and starts again. I've reinstalled the game a few times already and happens everytime. If anyone knows why is this happening or how to fix it, I'd be very thankful.

Thank you,

Khlarent.

Please provide the update.log located inside your osu!\Logs folder.

Is the update_success log needed too?

Can you try this?

I'm pretty sure what's happening is osu! is failing to grab the discord-rpc.dll file, as that's what causes this issue 90% of the time. You can check your update.log to confirm this.

You can manually download and put the required file into your osu! folder. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1x17jM9fnbyfbGM9vY6H54UXWECSILwlY/view?usp=sharing (that should be the required file) do know this is not an official download / fix, attempt at your own risk.

Apparently you can also just create a blank file and name it "discord-rpc.dll" and it'll "work". Though this may have adverse effects to your client. But I haven't seen any reported.

I've downloaded the file and it works! I've also downloaded a beatmap to see if there were any problems and everything seems to be running smoothly. Thank you very much for your help!
