Try downloading the HackShield Update manually + Black Cipher manually.
Then drag those into your maplestory folder.
Run HSUpdate.
Then try launching gamelauncher.

Are you deleting every single file from maplestory before redownloading and installing it. Use the Search option to look for them and delete every single one of them before u try downloading and installing it again but before u do that u should try launching ms using a different browser. If ur using chrome use firefox vise versa. You can also try using the "Setup" in the Maple folder. double click it and press Alt + H then try launching it again using the Gamelauncher in your maple folder not the shortcut.

I don't know if anyone does this but to brute force open MS you run game launcher. After your UAC *W7 so this is what I do sometimes* opens and you click yes open another game launcher quickly and click play asap. It will almost always open your MS up *Note: I do this to check during SC's.

Okay try this. Right click the Maplestory Game Launcher shortcut. Click Properties. Under "Target," paste this: C:Nex0nMapleStoryMapleStory.exe GameLaunching <-Change the 0 in Nex0n to an o. For some reason, it's censored o.o

EDIT: Put a slash between each of those words.

Are you sure? Have you checked it?
To check just press Alt+Ctrl+Del then click on Task Manager then click on Processes near the top. If you already knew then it's another problem then.

Because it already crashed once so you need to shut it down completely through Task Manager under 'Processes'
Scroll down to find Maplestory.exe

Stop arguing with them and just do it. If it doesn't work, there is no harm done.

Check your processes in your task manager.

Sometimes when Maple crashes it won't be completely turned off and prevent you from launching the game again, so to end the program completely you will need to 'End Process' it through the Task Manager under the 'Processes'.

because half the time this is the problem for some people, but they never think to do this...

are you getting any errors or is it just not opening? have you tried the obvious things like re-installing?

Right-click the task bar, open task manager, click "processes" and end MapleStory.exe
Then you run gamelauncher

(my computer isn't english, so some words might be wrong)
