It's downloading a new version of the game manager and uninstalling the old one.

It was a little troubling for me too until I realized what was going on.

Wouldn't it be nice if they either forewarned us or provided some description of what was happening?
There is no more powerful force in the human psyche than:
"We've always done it this way" - - -
which means people are upset by change. They need to be reassured.

Is this after the new Game Manager has been installed, or are you just trying to log in to the website? Or is it something else?

After the new Game Manager was installed, I had to log out of it and then log back in before I could get a game to download.

I was going to tell you to write to Big Fish. I am very happy to hear that you got things straightened out. Feeling cut off from something that important is indeed a nightmare.

I'm still only playing Big Fish games on Win7 for the moment and I BUY from the website but DOWNLOAD via the gama Manager

Re: big fish - 11/16/21 08:15 PM
So, did you update the manager on your Win7 Mad? I'm wondering if I should or not.
I also buy from the website and download from the manager. I already have a whole bunch of games downloaded on Win 7 (in prep for being offline) but every so often I still download a new one there.

I downloaded the new GM on my Windows 7 and had no issues with it.

Thanks Marian! Good to know!

Re: big fish - 11/16/21 09:17 PM
I logged in and out of my account at Big Fish earlier but wasn't required to update the game Manager - but I didn't buy anything.
So is it only necessary when you DO buy something and then need to download it ??

Re: big fish - 11/16/21 09:46 PM
I believe it happens automatically when you download a game - the GM installs and then after that the game download begins. This is what happened to me.

Re: big fish - 11/16/21 10:03 PM
i didn't buy or download anything. I received an email and the message showed in my GM when I opened it (even in the new manager).

Okay, good to know.

Mad, the new version is 3.5.0.0. Maybe you already have it?
I just did the update in Windows 7 and it seemed to do a lot more stuff than in Windows 10 (maybe in Win10 you just can't see it) and in Win7 it showed Big Fish "Stub" but I didn't notice it say that in Win 10.
