Error on Startup

[Seldanas]

Today I downloaded and updated my computer to Windows 10,
and Way of the Samurai 4 ran just fine. But then the 1.04 update
was released and now all I get on launch is:

File: Src\GameTask\GameTaskBase.cpp(691)
Expression: ret != 0
Message: CPhysXManager::Init fail

It appears to be a fault with my PhysX drivers, but I already downloaded
the newest ones from Nvidia. Does anyone have a solution to this error
or anyone with the same issue?

I'll post a reply if I find a solution to it before anyone else has replied.

Edit: A solution has been found, check one of the discussion stickies! Thanks for Obliviondoll for the guidance :]

Double Edit: Apparently all I had to do was restart my computer ^^

have you tried restarting the computer, someone had the same issue and was fixed by restarting.

If this occurs please install PhysX either from the following game folder:
Steam\steamapps\common\Way of the Samurai 4\_CommonRedist\PhysX\9.12.1031
or by getting the latest version of PhysX online.

Sometimes the stickies have information in them. I hope that answer helps you.

Ah! It certainly does. I'll read the sticky more closely next time :p

I managed to get it working, by installing physx, but everytime i open it from steam library it starts error again.

It works fine if i run game from it's file location instead of steam, and just have to reinstall physx whenever i run it from library to make it work again.
