Hello fellow spring players there is something wrong with my TASpring and SpringDownloader and at my guess its to do with unitsync.dll, all help will be deeply appreciated.

TASClient Error window (appeares as soon the splash screen has finished "initializing unitsync.dll")
Error
Error initializing unitsync.dll!
Spring Downloader Error window1 (apears whilst SpringDownloader is loading)
error loading unitsync
Please close program now and move your SpringDowloader.exe to spring folder and delete SpringDownloaderConfig.xml in your srping
Spring Downloader Error window2 (this window apears twice after SpringDownloader has closed)
FATAL excetion, SpringDownloader will close
System.Application: Unable to load UnitSync.dll from spring ---> System.Exeption: unitsync.dll init failed
at SpringLib.UnitSync..ctor(String path)
at SpringDownloader.MapDownloader.TorrentManager..ctor(String springPath)
---End of Inner exception stack trace---
at SpringDownloader.MapDownloader.TorrentManager..ctor(String springPath)
at SpringDownloader.Program.Main(String[] args)
Spring error window (apears before loading)
Incorrect/Missing Content:
Not a single writable data directory found!

Configure a writable data directory using either:
- the SPRING_DATDIR enviroment variable,
- a SpringData=C:/path/to/data declaration in spring's registry entry or
- by giving you write access to the installation directory
I hope I have supplied enough information, this is my first post :wink:. Thanks in advance, ell. :mrgreen:

You can back up your maps and mods by copying out the maps and mods folders from the spring install directory.
