Get logged out of Red Launcher
Since a few weeks I'm constantly getting logged out of the Red Launcher and I have to login every time with a new code. Anyone else having this problem? It's really getting annoying.

try looking in folder
c:\users\yourWindowsLogin\appdata\local\programs\cd projekt red\redlauncher\logs
try REDlauncher.log but may be an error msg in the others

check windows event viewer and also windows reliability history.
might be a game crash event.

maybe redlauncher is supposed to write the code somewhere and cannot
check antivirus log. new definition file may be blocking something

That folder structure doesn't exist for me, I'm on Win11. Will check out the other hints. Thanks!

I have win 11. you have no appdata folder?

or maybe the redlauncher cannot create folders/files in your appdata folder
if it cannot create folders/files there, probably cannot write your code either

or are you talking about the cdpr login/signin

Sorry, I'm stupid, I didn't realize that "yourwindowslogin" meant my username.

There are errors in the log, but I cannot read the codes or what they mean.

but you could post the last 10 lines or so. maybe someone on this forum
would know what is going on/not going on

or we could compare your lines with lines in a working log and suggest what comes next.

As I played today, I was logged in. But then the game crashed, and after I was logged out again. Here are the lines after the crash.

"Successfully Signed in. Setting the access token timer to new expiration of 2700s."

This line sound curious. Why would it expire? I never seen an option to change this so far.

I do not have a cd projekt account so my redlauncher log is different.
would still guess some file/registry entry is not being updated

if I use the red launcher then the redprelauncher.log shows:

do you need the redlauncher? if not add this to steam startup options
--launcher-skip
