It seem like every time I open up the GOG Galaxy it tells me there is an update available and every time I try to update it, I get the following error:

"Essential components needed to start GOG Galaxy are missing or incorrectly configured. If this continues, please reinstall the application."

I did the reinstall the last time and I really don't want to have to do that every time. It all seems to work properly as far as I can tell. (I don't really used GOG too often.)

Does anybody know what this means and how to fix it permanently? (And easily, of course.)

Unfortunately, this is a GOG Galaxy question that should be submitted to them. I did some looking and they do have a forum subject, so you are not the only one with the issue. Maybe see if there is something helpful there?

GOG Galaxy Throws Essential Components Missing Error

Thanks Drac! I'll take a look at it.

Oh, that was quick. I was expecting more. Nothing helpful for me though! I suppose if I contact GOG, I won't understand or want to try what they advise so I'll just live with it until it doesn't work I guess.
