Hello, 

Try to add the game to the white list of all your antimalware programs including windows defender

both the launcher and the game folder have been given permission and i switched off the firewalls, still not working

Then try to go to the folder features
and remove the attribute "read only"
Apply it for all the inside files and folders

yep i've just tried that now and still not working, the only file inside the game folder is "ClientInfo1223465" is there meant to be more?

Something else is blocking the download. The files can't be written to the game folder or can't be downloaded generally. Think of the other programs of settings that can be stopping the launcher from downloading the file
