Guys, I got my game running by doing the following:

1. Open your steam Library
   
2. Right click Warface and click Properties
   
3. Click on the Local Files Tab
   
4. Open Browse Local Files...
   
5. Go one directory above the one you are in (this should be your library folder with all your games)
   
6. Right click on Warface folder and select Properties.
   
7. Uncheck the Read Only checkbox and hit OK
   
8. Choose Apply changes to this folder, subfolders and files and hit OK

Hopefully, this works for some of you, and you don't have to download the entire game again.

Try deleting the contents of the folders in C:\Users\<username>\Saved Games\My Games\Warface. And then changing your monitor resolution to 1280x720.
I guess in my case it has something to do with having a weird resolution (1842x1036) in which case it doesn't work.

windows cannot verify the digital signature for this file. A recent hardware or software change might have installed a file that is signed incorrectly or damaged, or that might be malicious software from an unknown source. solve this problem for me (1 time i uninstalled and intall again but same error wt to do)

are the devs going to patch this problem or what?

[Thundermaker]

I tried all the above. None worked for me. Not a fan of changing my UAC settings or anything security related. Check my last windows update. The only thing that worked was to uninstall the windows 10 update that automatically installed on 4/12. Restarted PC all good, Warface on!

To be honest why provide fixes which don't work, why not just go and fix the problem with an update?

[[Pex ☠ DeaDLire] DocTesTyCooL]

All no work for me... And reinstalled uninstall 3 time...
Why not just fix your ♥♥♥♥? No... contact support... Blablabla... Very bad team...

[S.W.A.T. Pro]

None of those work... i would not like to download the game again. But if i still have to, will i lose my game progress when i reinstall Warface? My problem is every time the same: Game.exe is not a valid Win32 appliaction. What can i do with it? I have deleted that exe and replaced it but still not working
