NOT Mac: (Error: 00000002) Unable to obtain lock! [RESOLVED]

[bob999]

I have been playing RTW2 now since 18-May.  I stopped playing in mid-June (real life intervened).

I came back to the game this evening and I couldn't start it.  Instead, I get a modal dialogue box (with one button) with the error:

(Error: 00000002) Unable to obtain lock!

I have attached a screen grab.

I searched for this error on this board, but the only reference is to Macs running a windows emulator and activation, neither of which should be applicable.

My current configuration is:

Windows Surface Pro 6 with i7 processors

Windows 10 Pro version 1903 (last updated 5/13, with a security patch on 6/11)

Has anyone else encountered this issue?

Many thanks.

Bob

bob999 Update to the latest RTW2 patch and let me know if that resolves the issue, please.

Yes, thank-you. It's working again.
