Game wont start on Win 10 (solved)

[riezmiesnieks]

The upgrade thing says its up to date and all that but looking into it most coomon thing is that windows needed upgrade... in my case its up to date so idk what to do... i press start... it counts me to be playing the game in steam store tho the game does not even start... im about to ask for refund... tho i dont rly want that i want to play the bloody game...

might be a permission problem. run steam as admin.
check antivirus logs - might be blocking steam or the game.
laptop? make sure game is using dedicated graphics card and not motherboard.
turn off overlays like Raptr, MSIAfterburner, Overwolf, etc

Started it as admin and went into files all that junk now i get 0xc000007b is missing ... reinstaled .net and dxdiag like 20 times now... i have tryed all it still gives me that bloody error... ill ask for refond tomorrow if i cant get it to work... if i cant get it ill just never buy any games on steam... go back to MMO games... that dont have so many damn errors when you try playing them ><

Have you tried installing the directx and vcredist from the games folder? It sounds like you have something outdated, or missing. I have just installed the game on Windows 10 and played a couple of hours without any problems, so it can definitely be done.

[riezmiesnieks]

Yes i tried that ...contacting win 10 support and trying more stufff tho its been 8h of fixing... and still noithing

[cheshirm]

look in the windows event viewer. might be more information than just 0xc000007b. looks like a c++ library is missing but which one is the question.

[riezmiesnieks]

I reinstaleed all C++ and rebooted windows 4 times and reinstaled them again... time to ask for refond on this game... that wont FKING WORK!!!!

[cheshirm]

I DID THAT... one of first things i did... im soo done with steam thx tho for the help its like steam dont provide support at all for crap they sell if i dont get a refond on this junk ill be rly mad

[Perlimpinpin]

Are u playing on laptop too?

[riezmiesnieks]

(sry for my english, i'm french) I've seen somewhere that the fullscreen mode in the game who make troubles on the laptops, so we have to look this way

0xc000007b is missing ... Since your seeing this code and using Windows 10 then try this.

Windows Key + R and type (optionalfeatures) and find the folder Legacy Componenets and check the box for Direct Play. Will need to restart PC.

Fixed ! Go To file "WB Games" and open "render.cfg" with text editor. Then replace the first 0 in the windowed Line by 2 (sry for my english)
