This error can occur if you've previously had Bannerlord Online installed on a hard disk (location) that is no longer available.

Uninstall using Programs and Features
  1. Open the "Control Panel" (Not Settings) and from the "Programs" category, choose "Uninstall a program".
    Note: This is different from the "Apps and features" found in the Settings menu.

  2. Attempt to uninstall Bannerlord Online.
    Note: This will likely result in an error that it is unable to be found and should be removed.

  3. Reinstall Bannerlord Online.

Checking the Windows Register

!!! WARNING !!!​
Exercise extreme caution when using the Registry Editor. If you edit the registry incorrectly, serious problems might occur that could require a complete reinstall of the operating system and result in data loss.

!!! WARNING !!!​
  1. In the search box on the taskbar, type regedit, then select Registry Editor (Desktop app) from the results.
  2. Navigate to "Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\BannerlordOnline".
  3. Look for the data listed for "GameDirectory". This will show a location on your computer in which Bannerlord Online believes you have Bannerlord installed.
    • If this location refers to a removable external hard drive, you can place this hard drive back and uninstall Bannerlord Online.
    • If you're confident in your skills, you can manually change the GameDirectory to the new location Bannerlord is installed in.
    • If you're not sure about the above 2 options, scroll down and use a Registery Cleaner.
Do not make any changes here unless you are 100% certain you know what you're doing!​

Use a Register Cleaner software to remove dead entries.
  1. Download and install a Registery Cleaner, or run one if you already have it installed. (i.e. CCleaner)
  2. Run a scan of your register using the Registry cleaner software. If presented with a list, only remove the ones for Bannerlord Online.
  3. Re-install Bannerlord Online.
