Crossfire won't start up

Ru5T

Whenever i open crossfire on my desktop(and i tried it from the files location thingy),i click start game and normally it would start downloading. Instead up comes this white box saying 'ok' in the middle. This happened yesterday after the patch. I don't know if this has anything to do with the patch but....ill just mention that anyway.
I tried a couple of different things to try make it work.
1) I restarted my laptop
2) I tried to start it from the crossfire.exe thing
3) I deleted crossfire and re-downloaded it
4) Still wouldnt work
5) I did some scans but nothing happened

Can someone please give me some advice to sort this out because im 3k from a promotion and i'm very annoyed.

Delete your Gameguard folder in your Crossfire directory. It'll be automatically getting repatched when you restart your game.
If it doesnt work, uninstall your Crossfire and download it from the Mirrors on the website again. If these Mirrors doesnt work for you, cou can try it with the installer from here.
