If you pass an
--executable
arg like when playing the Seamless Co-op mod Elden Ring does crash. The reason issubprocess.run()
waits for the passed executable likeersc_launcher.exe
to finish but it does not wait foreldenring.exe
to finish. The Python script is unaware ofeldenring.exe
since it was executed byersc_launcher.exe
. Thenrmtree()
is called and deletes the patchedeldenring.exe
while it is running.This PR solves this by checking if
eldenring.exe
can be accessed. If it is locked it won't be deleted. The behavior remains unchanged if--executable
is not passed.I tested this on Windows 11. Would be great if someone can test it on Linux aswell.
