A hotfix has been deployed to fix this. This thread is now irrelevant.

The new patch has an issue with the launcher throwing up errors and asking to download a MIcrosoft Net whatever, however installing it does not fix it.

To fix it go to;

  • ...SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Baldurs Gate 3\DotNetCore
  • Reinstall windowsdesktop-runtime-6.0.11-win-x64

And that's it. Launcher will work properly then.

Posting this here in General so people can see and spread the message.

Hey! Thanks a lot for this. Do you perhaps have any idea how to fix this issue on the Steam Deck? The launcher is giving the same error and no idea how to go around it haha.

Unfortunately no as I don't own a Steam deck. If Steam deck can access the exe directly you can bypass the launcher, but otherwise you might just need to wait for them to officially fix it.

Doesn't seem to work for GoG, sadly.

I just got a 1MB update on Steam, might be a hotfix for this. Check your GOG if you haven't already.

EDIT: Confirmed by Raze from Support that it is indeed a hotfix. Have fun everyone!

It works; re-install dotNetDesktopRuntime60_x64 found in GoG dependencies

Yes I found the solution early and posted it in the troubleshooting page. For me the game can only work with version 6.0.11, not the latest as advised wrongly (6.0.12)

However if you launch the game by clicking the bg3.exe in the Bin subfolder of the game, it will start without the launcher.

I can confirm this. The older version works for me too.
