Click "Play" on Launcher and Nothing Happens
 

HELP!

Alright so when I click on the LoL icon on my desktop, it comes up with the patcher as normal.

However, once I press play, the patcher exits and nothing happens.

I can see the "LoLlauncher.exe*32" on my task manager.

I am running windows 7 with 6gb RAM and a 64 bit operating system.

Hello Mudkipz!

Thank you for bringing this issue to the Help and Support Forum! Pressing the giant glowing orange button of "PLAY", and then nothing happens can be excruciatingly frustrating, since you are left with doing the exact opposite of what you clicked.

Typically, this problem is most often caused by a failed self-patch of the patcher. Although we are working to resolve this issue there are a few known workarounds:

The first and most common solution is to force the patcher to repatch itself. You can do this by deleting this folder:
C:\Riot Games\League of Legends\RADS\projects\lol_launcher
If you chose a custom install path, the folder may be in a different location.

Many players also fixed this problem by disabling the UAC(Windows Vista and Win7 Only)
Here is a short guide to disabling the UAC: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windo...windows-vista/
- Be sure to use the "Never notify me when:" setting

The same thing is happening to me.

I'm running windows7 with 3gb RAM and a 64bit operating system.

I did both methods and still It does not work I also Uninstalled and Re-installed the game serveral times and it still does not work. I will be really sad if I will not be able to play this awesome game anymore. I spent so much time on this game and I don't what I will do during my free time and I'll miss the friends i made on this awesome game.

This worked
 

Thanks a lot man! Deleting the file then redoing the patch worked great! See you on the battlefield!
