Is anyone getting this code? (Code: 20001)? Everything was doing great till this afternoon. I opened up Maplestory, nexon Launcher updated and then all of a sudden I get this message. If anyone got this message please comment below on how to fix this issue. If all fails I'll just download steam. Thanks

    Just throw that NX launcher into trashcan where it belongs.
    Uninstall NX launcher completely, and just install MS through Steam. You will never have this kind of BS launcher problem again.

    After uninstalling (and deleting) everything, the launcher seems to have issues by not opening when I click on it, often it crashes after I log in, and when a miracle does happen after the 10th attempt, the game won't install and is stuck on 'verifying'. What is going on Nexon?

    Anyone still having this issue? I tried downloading the Nexon Launcher and every time I try to open it, it gives me:

    "Failed to initialize the Nexon Launcher (Code: 20001). Please check your network connection and try again."

    I have internet access and tried reinstalling but still, same issue. Trying to prep myself for Maplestory 2 and they even emailed me to download the Nexon Launcher when its not even working?

    Please help :'(

    Yo folks, i hade the same issue but found a fix (since players need to fix them sh!t themselfs nowadays):

    seems a fault in C runtime.

    Find your OS and download the package here:

    Happy Maple!

    I am currently having this problem, I was fin on my computer and I just updated to windows 10 with a fresh install, nothing much else installed on my computer (installed, steam, firefox, chrome, ccleaner, 7zip, and gimp), Haven't installed any games. tried installing nexon launcher and I keep getting this error whenever i try to load it, since I'm on windows 10 there is not update in the link that Stinky2 posted that i can try.

    Anyone else have any new ideas how to fix this?

    Good luck!

    Edit:
    ps. probably BECAUSE you have a fresh install you get the error. (since runtime isnt installed yet)
