Minecraft Tekkit Launcher problem

Hi MPGH people,

So I've had this problem for the last 3 days already, I can't figure out what's wrong with the Tekkit launcher. I've tried all the cracked launchers, using alts and stuff, still didn't work. I thought it was a connection problem, but Tekkit works fine on my Mac. I can play Minecraft on my PC, fyi. I really want to play it on my PC though. I'm running Windows 7 64-bit Home Premium, just in case anyone needs that info to help me. Also, I've uploaded the log that came with the failure of the launch. Thanks, guys!

Some things I could point out for you:

Looks like some parts of your .technic folder is missing. Or possibly, most of the directory?

Error Code 403 means that the resource you're trying to reach is forbidden for some reason (for example: You don't have the permission to access it) But this shouldn't affect the game itself, only the news feed on the launcher.

Now this is just like what it seems, the error is caused by "CodeChickenCore.cfg" not being found for some reason. Probably the key reason to why your game is not working.

TL;DR/What you should do: Try reinstalling the pack. Or clean everything off the .technic folder and set up the launcher, install your modpacks, everything as usual. (NOTE: Backup your saves, screenshots, anything you want to keep.)

joeystar, thanks, I'll try to reinstall the pack, if it works, I'll get back to you. :D

Okay, so I've tried reinstalling the launcher, using a different alt this time. I managed to get past the Minecraft validation thingy, but then the game crashed on me. Again. Any help would be much appreciated. :)

Seems like this problem is from Windows 'locking' the file, this is not the modpack's fault, but maybe I'm wrong, maybe not. Try running the launcher as admin, or restarting, it just might work.

Thanks for the help, joeystar :D MPGH Admins should close this thread, problem solved :D (not really I just gave up on tekkit lawl thanks anyway joey :))
