Stuck in 'Quick Play Mode' at 99.98%

so, I was extremely excited when the Launcher stated my download had finished, erupting with a pleasant symphonic indicating it's completion, and displaying the words 'your game is now fully installed..' yadda yadda

I re-entered the world of Hutta, just by a shuttle at the spaceport, ready to begin my larger journey. ALAS! action'ing the shuttle's door to travel to the Fleet and get off this Hutt-ruled Hell-hole, this Hutt-Hole, only resulted in a stern slap across my helmet's faceplate that stated 'You must complete the full download in order to leave your starting planet,' or something along the lines of this. And, to my utter disgust, in the top right corner of my screen was the ominous download status box, still looming, taunting me with it's '99.98%' and it's smug, slime-shrouded, grin shining ever-so menacingly right at me.

TL;DR launcher says my download is complete, cinematics and everything play upon start, yet in-game it states I am in 'quick play' mode and the download is at 99.98%.

How do I fix this? I need to get to Dromund Kaas to trade a female carcass for a bounty and partake in The Great Hunt!

Background download stuck at 99%? 1 answer

So, I've reached the end of my 'quests' and stuff on the planet, but because the game isn't 'fully downloaded' it's not letting me leave. It's been stuck at 99.95% for downloading for about two or three weeks now, and it's kind of pissing me off because I would like to move on in my gameplay.

How can I make the game download the rest of the update?

A lot of people have been having errors related to the downloads since the lastest expansion. I kept getting 'unable to retrieve patch data (311)', and several guildies have had the same problem you did.

Apparently some people have been having problems with their hosts. Instructions for changing this have been posted on the SWTOR forums:

But basically, the instructions are:

Press Windows Key+R to open a Run Line.

To access the hosts file in Windows 7 you can use the following command in the Run Line to open notepad and the file.
