Fix for not launching.

[RockLight]

At least this worked for me for Black Ops II and MW3.

Simply uninstall and reinstall. It takes a minute to launch after "updating executable" message (it even took a few tries for Black Ops II), but so far both titles are working again.

In fact, you don't even have to do an uninstall/reinstall. Simply verify files. Once files are verified and you see the "updating executable" message, just keep trying to launch until it finally does and it will launch just fine from then on.

Others have done many other things that say fixed it. I think it's just that it finally works at some point. I have not had to make any settings change or install any mod. The same is true for MW2 and MW3, which have also had launch issues.

In fact, this has worked for me for three different CoD apps, twice -- the second time was after I moved them to a new partition. It worked all six times.

No compatibility mode or mod or any other setting change is necessary.
