Error on Start

[Rondy]

Today for no reason getting the following error on start up.

Couldn't start:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Voyage\Voyage\Binaries\Win64\Voyage-Win64-Shipping.exe" Voyage
CreateProcess() returned 11c7.

Turns out for some reason Microsoft Smart App was blocking the app, as soon as smart app is turned off the problem went away.

The above is for info only and hope it might help someone.

Same here, playing throughout the day 1/27/26 no issues and just threw 11C7 error and won't start. ChatGPT provided some reasons this can happen, many of which are not malicious and related to signing the exe, I uploaded the Voyage Win64 Shipping exe to virustotal and no vendors reported as malicious. Disabling Smart App Control is permanent until you reset the PC/reinstall windows, further ChatGPT'ing about disabling it shows it doesn't add any additional security over Defender and other built in Win 11 security features, it mainly just stops an unknown/malicious/signature issue executable from starting at all vs Defender letting it run and then flagging it if malicious. I'll go ahead and disable it now so I can play but I wouldn't be surprised if Channel37 resolves it very soon anyway
