Here\'s what I did:

Re-install the game.

Make a shortcut for the updater. Click the shortcut with your right mouse button and click properties from the menu.

In the properties panel, there\'s the \"target\" path.
In the target path you have the path to your updater which ends somehow like this:

...\\updater.exe\"

Now add the famous \"--auto\" to the end of the path textbox so it looks like this:

...\\updater.exe\" --auto

Now when you run the updater, it says that it found a new updater and is gonna download it. After it has downloaded it,  the updater flashes couple of times on the screen and after that, it says it\'s gonna try to start the updater. Don\'t worry though, the updater probably isn\'t gonna work, so it gives you the illegal operation error or similar. Just run the updater from the shortcut again and it should start downloading the update.

Here\'s how I got it to work. I hope this helps if you already haven\'t figured it out.
