[Temporary Workaround Found] Unable to login in-game

[ScorpDK]

Notice how the big blue banner by Danielle that said they were fixing the login problem is now gone. Seems they fixed the network issue, and completely ignore / are baffled by - our own issue which seems to continue to exist.

Well, I mean, we could try to reverse engineer and datamine our clients to make sure that the problem isn't on our---- oh... wait... nope... banhammer

I don't think they are baffled ( or the banner would not be gone ), more that the forums are little use if you want DE to know anything and the support company IMHO are even worse

Didn't work for me.

[ScorpDK]

Hold on. What. I just enabled the Workstation Service, restarted my network, and tried connecting. I am getting in.

 

What is happening? Did they fix something? Guys. Try to connect now.

I'd LIKE to test if this works for me, but I can't enable workstation since dependencies are missing. In fact, the dependencies for it don't even show up in services menu.

[Zeladan]

Starting the Workstation service did fix my problem.  Why the hell did this update require it enabled, when pre-PoE did not?

[Saintcee1]

wehooo have fun guys...its been emotional

[Alaestor]

YOURE @(*()$ S#&$TING ME?!
workstation service? the SMB protocol?
WHAT THE F*** DE
 

please... stop... you've got to be joking.

[Yonael]

I can't Start Workstation Service! It gives me error 1068. How do I fix this?

[Jhoyz21]

How to start this "Workstation" that you guys talking about?

Because DE are completely incompetent and are suddenly requiring protocols that make your computer vulnerable to instantly being taken over by a virus that you don't even need to download to get infected by.

 

If this actually is the issue then I am @(*()$ flabbergasted. How can you be so ridiculously inane as to NEED to open yourself to a serious, computer-bricking virus, to play WF?

 

If this is the case, then the next update NEEDS to remove this. Immediately. Not by monday, not by sunday, but NOW.

 

Additionally, I can't even test to see if it works for me since it tells me 'dependencies are missing'.

The service dependancies are non existant. As in they're not in the list of services.

Depending on your Windows version, but it should be pressing opening the "Run" (Windows Key + R) window,  typing "services.msc" and then executing.

You end up in the Services management console, where you look for "Workstation", right click it, and then tell it to start automatically. There's a post 1-2 pages prior with an image of how to do it.

Same here. They are not present in the list, so they can't be turned on. What a @(*()$ joke.

[Miezx]

Activation of Workstationservice did help (Win7) - but really DE?

[Saintcee1]

and if you want to see what dependencies it needs...double click on 'workstation' this brings up the properties tab...----.goto the dependencies tab and see what it needs...mine is 'browser/network store interface/smb 2.0 relocator'

find those in the list and start them..

[Soundpulse]

I would rather wait for an actual fix to this. Why would Warframe suddenly need this? It feels really weird for the game to suddenly need you to enable this.
