When I tried to start it this morning I got the same error even though I was successfully able to play last night. It looks like what happened is Windows Defender deleted the dll file and then my game would not start up. When I tried to redownload the patch it said there was a virus present.
What I was able to do to fix it was to temporarily disable Windows Defender or whatever antivirus program you have that will prevent you from downloading new patch. Re-download the new patch. Transfer the dll file into your EQ directory. If you want to turn your security back on, go back to your antivirus program and allow your P99 folder as an exception to the antivirus program. I then turned my Windows Defender back on and it is currently working. I don't know if I'll have the same issue once I reboot my computer so I guess I will know when I get back home. I don't pretend to be very computer savvy but this is what I did and it seems to be working | ||

How to get a new dsetup.dll?
I added the exception for the entire EQ folder in my antivirus settings. Except now that even though I stopped my windows defender from quarantining dsetup.dll, it is no longer in my EQ directory.
There doesn't seem to be one in the latest patch files either. How can I play the game without this file and nowhere else to get it? I don't have last patch (48) on my computer so I can't take from there. | ||

You need to download the patch files again. Your anti virus is probably deleting it on extraction.

Can anyone explain why it is detected as being a virus?

Please see here for Rogean's response.

Windows defender will also flag this file and will quarantine it. So even if you do your regular antivirus. You may still have to go into Defender and restore it btw.
