Does anyone have any idea what language is this launcher application made in ? I have to decompile it to launch a game in english (since the launcher is broken and can not be launched on Windows 7) and I don´t know what language is this made in. Originaly I thought it was made in C# but CodeReflect says otherwise. I found a .manifest file in the same folder. Here is the link to the launcher : http://www.mediafire.com/file/w1doltcrxng19y8/Launch.exe

Why do you need a program to "launch" another program? I clicked the "learn more" button on their website. The first time it brought up a betting site, the second time it tried to bring up a page that was blocked by my antivirus software. Seems like a bad idea to me.

Hi,

look, this hex dump suggests it could be C++:

Thanks cereal !
BTW. I will reply to some of reverend jim´s questions. The reason for the launcher is that the game it runs uses arguments for the language. It defaults to german and there is no other way how to change it. Oh and yeah the website is just for the download link.
