How Do I Log In and Play Games? [Solved]

I already made it over the first hurdle of copying a dll file to a location in my AppData folder and renaming it, but now I cannot log in or play games. After entering my credentials, which do allow me to log in on the website, nothing changes in the launcher. As for trying to play a game, all I get is a blank window with a message saying "Couldn't load plugin." My brother is logged in to his account and can play games just fine, but he doesn't know why it's working fine for him. What am I missing here?

If you needed to copy dll files and mess around with the AppData folder, then it already sounds like the install process didn't go smoothly. If it were me, I'd just uninstall (maybe reboot computer too, since sometimes weird bugs are caused by RAM issues fixed by a reboot).

For me, the install process was something like:
1) Found Ninjakiwi Archive on Steam, told it to install
2) During installation (or maybe it was first-time starting NK Archive), I was prompted to download Flash Player from a download Mirror (Techspot? I recall there was only one at the time, and when installing on a friend's computer the mirror happened to be down, so we tried again later with success)
3) After starting NK Archive, I made a new account (they don't confirm the email address)
4) I started a game successfully.

Hope it works.

Interesting. I was never asked to download flash, but I went ahead and did it anyway while troubleshooting. Nothing changed.

As for the dll file, I was getting a JavaScript error when I started the launcher after it installed, so I performed the operation the launcher was trying myself to get it working.

I'll try doing a reinstall as administrator after uninstalling Flash and clearing the Archive's files in my AppData folder. Maybe it doesn't like me being a standard user.
