You can play on 2 different accounts at once... You just need to know the work-around for it...

Simply start up your first account with the launcher, then go into the Task Manager. End the process entitled "Launcher1.exe." After that, you should be able to open the launcher a second time, and log in to a second account on the same computer.

Ugh, I really dislike the launcher. It's awkward, and big, and you can't switch away from it easily. What a disappointment.

If you want to be able to open and close the launcher easily, just go to "Game Options" and set it in to "Windowed Mode," which makes it just as easy to close as another screen or tab.

Ah, thanks Del. That makes it a lot better.

About time if you ask me, I can never run the browser.

Uhh... you may want to fix that

I'm thrilled - I never really liked playing through the web.

I wonder why most of the comments are celebrating - after all, Disney is taking away a feature. For the people who play on launcher already, nothing's really changing.

I MUCH prefer browser

, sigh.

EDIT:Wait! For all the people who like browser, you can make launcher like it! Just go into options and select "Windowed" and then press "Save" and you have the best of both!

Behind the curtains there were many technical issues with the browser version which caused not only issues for the end user but for Disney support. Moreover, I think from their perspective the lag issues should be less of an issue. Now they have 1 interface to watch over and improve upon.

Oh no! I had the launcher all along. used both, launcher and browser.

Why not leave it both ways!?!?!? User's preference!

I prefer the launcher but want the browser still available.

bad move in my opinion.

Ahh!!! They got rid of the Browser!!!! NO!!!!!!! Now I can't play until they find the problem with my launcher!

What seems to be the problem with the launcher?

HammyTheSquirrel · #28 07-29-2011, 04:36 PM

Uh... that's the biggest problem. They don't know yet. o.O It just loads to the main page of the launcher where you log in... then it closes within a second of it being loaded. @_____._____@ Although POTCO is already on it.

EDIT: How did I not realize this?!?!? It was in compatibility with Windows 2000. @_@
