@ICreatedThisAccountForKyber-svg

Description

Description
EA login fails with a "program not found" error every time login is attempted, both in the KYBER Launcher GUI and via kyber_cli.exe get_token. The Maxima data folder remains completely empty, suggesting Maxima never successfully completes initialization.

Steps To Reproduce
Install KYBER Launcher on a non-C: drive (e.g. F:\Program Files (x86)\KYBER Launcher)
Open the KYBER Launcher
Click "Login with EA"
Complete EA sign-in in the browser
See "program not found" error with stack backtrace

Expected Behavior
EA login completes successfully and the KYBER Launcher reaches the main screen.
