Many Arkaik: Tales of Sarina players report that, during the update process, a message appears requesting the installation of .NET 8 (either x86 or x64 version). While this is a simple process, some players may be confused or think it's an error.
What is .NET 8?
.NET 8 is a collection of libraries and tools required to run certain Windows applications, including games. If your system does not have the correct version of .NET 8 installed, the game or launcher may not work properly.
Why Does This Happen?
During some updates, the game may require specific functionalities from .NET 8. If your system does not have the necessary version installed, the launcher will automatically request the framework installation.
What Should You Do When This Message Appears?
(Next steps would likely include downloading and installing .NET 8βif needed, let me know!)
If you receive the message (or encounter the error listed below), follow these steps to install .NET 8:
Click the link provided in the message or visit the official Microsoft website to download DIRECT LINK or .NET8 LINK.
Download and install it directly on your computer (IMPORTANT).
