You can not attach a debugger while playing Project 1999
 

Fresh install on W10. I don't have a debugger. Tried as admin and it says it can't find eqgame.exe. I navigated directories manually in admin cmd and use start eqgame patchme to no avail.

Help would be appreciated.

Restart your computer til it stops doing it. This is the only fix for this that we know of.

Yikes ok. Thanks for the tip.

I uninstalled AVG protection and it worked.

Nice. Obviously install a AV so you don't get any nasties. Avast is a good alternative to AVG

I found a better solution. I am also using Windows 10 and AVG and had the same problem.

Solution:
Added eqgame.exe to the excpetions list in AVG

how do you add it to excpetions on AVG? i can't find it anywhere =/

"cannot attach debugger" and "cannot fine eqgame" are seperate errors; the "cannot find" often happens when a batch file (.bat) is run in administrator mode, which tends to make it start in windows\system32, since a batch file is really a dos prompt, and that's where admin-level cmd prompts start. Since there's no eqgame.exe in windows\system32.... blah blah blah...

I can not confirm this works as I do not use or have AVG.. but here are instructions I saw someone post on a similar thread.

Edit the batch file to:

cd..
cd..
cd eq (or whatever folder eq is in)
start eqgame patchme

that will fix the running as an admin issue
