Im looking foward to play again but for 2 wks now im having trouble getting all the patches downloaded.....Support is giving me some help but still im stuck at 17.2.0 and im getting this message patcher told to do maintenance but maintenance.dat is missing. This means anarchy.exe can't write file.....can anyone give some info on this...Ive been working on this for over 2 wks and getting really fustrated.....tks

Try downloading the patches and applying them manually from anarchy-online.com.
I really don't know if it is going to work, but simply try.

Or use some p2p program like BitTorrent and download up-to-date (or at least newer) version. Took me about 1.5h for small client (no expansions) less than a month ago.
