Nexon Launcher force to download&reinstall x3 time
Bug type: I don't know how to categorize this type of issue with Nexon Launcher.
Brief bug summary: Nexon Launcher force to download&reinstall, even if the game already installed.
More details: I have this game installed twice already here: C:\Nexon\MapleStory
And here: C:\Nexon\Library\maplestory\appdata
The Nexon folder size on disk is already 41 GB !!
Today i open Nexon Launcher and again... its downloading 9.80 GB !! what is going on with your program?
Steps to reproduce: I don't know... i just opened the launcher in a new sunny day and it happened.
Comments
do that then log out then relog into nexon launcher, click dl and itll verify your files first, if you set the exact location itll just be a few minutes but not dl the whole game.

Its C:\Nexon\Library
and like i said, its installed there already.. i haven't changed Nexon Launcher settings at all.
change it to the point that it says appdata. It has to locate maplestory folder
so yours would go past library something like C:\Nexon\Library\Maplestory\appdata
yeah it's installed, but what im getting to is that when you relog into launcher, and you press download/update, itll just verify files. it wont download it
i did it and still need to download it again
edit:
it downloaded and installed it in exact same location it was before, C:\Nexon\Library\maplestory\appdata
something is broken with this software.
Yeah, it happened on a separate occasion before and support just said "sorry about that" so theres nothing that can be done if those methods didnt work.
What worked for me yesterday was I manually updated combat arms and then maplestory auto verified that I had the files already.
I want nexon folder to be 9.8GB and not 38GB as it is now.. uninstall and delete everything won't help because sadly this will keep happening.. also, this really annoy to wait for it to download 9.8GB every time..
Thanks anyway for trying to help me
Yeah, I completely agree. What I suggest now is if you do download it again after deleting the nexon files, make a second copy to an external hard drive or flash drive, in case this happens again.
last thing you can do is check where you have your files and see if theres any empty maplestory files there (like say you pressed dl then canceled) new files were created, delete those if there are any and try relogging into launcher and press update. other than that, youll have to redownload the game, which i then suggest deleting the current files.
if you need anything else you can message me
Now all I'm getting is: Press Play -> Button turns grey with circle and message saying "Currently in-game" -> After a few seconds buttons turns orange again as "Play".
When I check Task Manager, MapleStory is not running anywhere.
the play button thing happens to me too, but it works after the second try or 3rd.
