Alternative way to update client... (error [11006][20641][20643])

[Ayasu]

Yet, SE still told people to uninstall the beta client to prevent issues with the retail version.

It doesn't only relate to the PC platform but the consoles as well... It depends on the install software and how it unpacks and installs the files etc.

Common sense says, uninstall any beta EVEN on the consoles, before installing the retail version to avoid any issues/crashes between the codes from the beta and the retail version...

Also, setting your game to run under admin rights doesn't guarantee it'll work for everyone...

Like I said, I got that error after having been able to play for over a week -- I don't have the beta installed on my PC anymore. It's a typo in the error messaging, at this point.

I also said that Run as Admin for for /me/ but, your mileage may vary. Which means, no, it doesn't guarantee it'll work for everyone.

Either way, SE needs to have some sort of better knowledgebase for these errors -- not even their support staff knows WTF these mean.
