Arkham City BmLauncher.exe not found [SOLVED]

[Ample Durian]

Hi guys, I have this problem with Arkham City where when i try to start it it crashes. it says that BmLauncher.exe is not found. When I went to WBgames/BatmanACGOTY/Binaries/Win32 there was nothing there. I heard there is suppose to be BmLauncher.exe there, but I cant find it. I have played this game on my pc for many times I've almost 100% it, but now ll of a sudden it crashes...I have tried reinstalling like 10 times, reinstalling windows 10, and like verifying my game files and stuff like that. Messing around with the game files and stuff like that also. I saw that there are many problems like that with pc playing Arkham City, and I have tried many of the ways but they dont really work. Please help. I know this game is really old but I heard many great stuff about it and really want to finish it....so please helppp

"Wow ok, but if i boot up the game from steam, then would'nt it sync with my steam cloud?"
I don`t know, that`s you to find out on yourself.

"Also do i have to put bmlauncher into the WBgames/BatmanAC/Binaries/Win32 file?"
Yes, in the Win32 folder are located the game`s .exe file, so there it should be moved. The BM launcher is the launcher that enables you to change the game settings and controls since you can`t do that once you are inside the game.

This is how it should appear when you launch the game from Steam:

If you click on "Play Batman: Arkham City" you will actually start the game without the BM Launcher.

And this is how BM Launcher actually looks like: https://c1.staticflickr.com/5/4244/34813468873_30c24abaf8_o.jpg

ok thanks, i think it will still sync

Can you send my a photo of how the Win32 file shoud look and the game file also like the non wbgames one....yeahh

[Ample Durian]

Because I think I might also be missing a few more files in the wbgames folder.....i think so only, not confirmed

Just do a Steam File Validation on Batman Arkham City if you "think" you miss any files:

[Ample Durian]

ok, but does your WBgames/BatmanAC/Binaries/Win32 file have any other things besides bmlauncher.exe?

[Ample Durian]

oya, i did the validation check, it said 42 files missing

You said in your first post that you had already run a verify of your installation!?

[Ample Durian]

yeah, but it didnt recover the files

[Ample Durian]

I restarted my computer, an it recovered the files for awhile only, after that it got deleted again

[Ample Durian]

I've read a lot about this issue. And a lot of other people also could't get thier stuff recovered

[Ample Durian]

Umm, guys i think i "fixed it"

I reinstalled it and it got back all the files...like in my games file Bmlauncher is there....
However, it is not in the WBgames file....aahhhhh i havent tried opening it yet so wait ahhh

[Ample Durian]

oh wait no....after i try to start up the game all my files instantly got deleted

[Ample Durian]

like a lottttt of my files

[Ample Durian]

not only bmlauncher is missing....

[Ample Durian]

Should i reinstall again and then pull out the file to the desktop? Then put it back in when the original files get deleted
