Failed launching downloader?

I just finished downloading the newest patch and when I click to play the game it gives me a message saying failed to launch downloader. Why would I get this did I do something wrong while downloading or is it on their end that things aren't ready yet as for the realms. Please let me know so I have an idea when to play again and thank you.
