    Caused by: java.nio.file.AccessDeniedException: C:\ProgramData\FAForever\cache\featured_mod Seems like folder/file permission related or security software is blocking access.

    Still great advice! I would only add one point which is, find like minded people to play with. If you are looking to improve on Ladder (TMM now) or Custom x vs x games and find that you are unable to perform good enough to win on your own, make some friends and queue together because at the end of the day, even if you do everything perfectly, you are playing a team game. As Picard once said: "It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose." Sometimes your opponent is just better. Use those times to learn from them.

    You have a sound bug which you can tell by the SND/XACT warnings. You should go to Windows key > Control Panel > Sound > Playback > select the Device you use > Configure to ensure that your sound device is set to Stereo then look in Properties to make sure that all Enhancements & Spatial Sound are Off. After you've verified those settings, usually a simple Restart or Shift+Shutdown (not just Shutdown) of your PC will resolve the sound issue. If that doesn't work, then you can have a look at this thread for further troubleshooting: https://forum.faforever.com/topic/4084/solutions-for-snd-error-xact-invalid-arg-xact3dapply-failed

    ⇉ You can navigate to the folders via the FAF client itself (see attached image) Overview: client.log → Contains information about the FAF client itself. Important when client crashes. game_replay_id.log → Contains information about a certain played game. Important when game crashes. client.prefs → This JSON config file stores game settings like installation path, preferences, hotkeys, notes, enabled mods, mod and map directories, chat and notification settings, window size and position, and last game type/title. Default log location: On Windows: C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\Forged Alliance Forever\logs On Linux: ~/.faforever/logs client.prefs location: On Windows: C:\Users%username%\AppData\Roaming\Forged Alliance Forever On Linux: ~/.faforever [image: 1693321191396-f0dcbf83-2360-4769-93a7-fc6725e23f9a-image.png]

    Just kill the task in the task manager. But yeah, this bug should get fixed. The FAF client is a mess, most of the time you close it, it stays open in the background and even increases cpu load.

    AFAIK One of the next major steps for the developers is to narrow down the issue on the ongoing connection issues which some people encounter lately. The developers have just finished improving the Login Service recently https://forum.faforever.com/topic/6429/login-service-update/1 It is extremely hard and time consuming to debug the network stuff so the "ultimate" solution will take some time. If the issue is not related to your security settings like firewall or router, then unfortunately I have no idea how you can solve it on your side - except to try it on a fresh Windows with a default environment.

    @magge said in Solutions for common errors with the FAF client launcher or supreme commander: The client is unable to establish a secure connection to the content server for downloading the game files. Disable security software for testing purpose Check firewall settings, if it blocks anything related to secure connection/FAF Launcher

    Try switching your default browser in Windows Settings & then try to logging in with browser again. Some browsers have difficulty completing the authentication process. If you still have issues, then please open Run (Windows+R), then copy/paste this into the prompt: %USERPROFILE%/AppData\Roaming\Forged Alliance Forever\logs Click OK. This should open the logs folder that FAF uses. Inside, you should see a client.log file (the Text Document, not the .gz compressed file). Post that client.log file into here so those that can help (not me) have that data to review.

    Switching back to stereo on my headphone sound system fixed the problem. I had headphones on 7.1 surround sound.
