DLCs are not working? SOLVED

[Jack Lev]

I reinstalled my computer, downloaded Attila, and now I can't play anything but Vanilla? What happened? I've tried reinstalling the game, deleting files in %appdata%, turning DLC off and on... nothing helps. Have you had a similar problem in the past boys?

Solution:
Exit Steam.
Navigate to C:/Program Files/Steam (This may differ if you've changed Steam's installation path).
Find Steam.exe
Right-click on the files and select Run as administrator

It works now.

In the Attila game page in your steam library will be an options cog icon. I think it's called verify game installation. It usually helps solve this if you run it.

Unfortunately, that doesn't help.

Add the shortcut to the game from the steam app on your pc for that game and then when you open it it'll launch the steam launcher app. If like I did once, I created a shortcut from the steam library on my windows explorer it didn't then launch the steam total war launcher and didn't recognise I had all the dlc.

Maybe I don't understand what you mean. I run the game from the library on Steam... is there a problem?

Okay, so on the game in your library right click and properties, dlc should be there and see if it's all got a blue tick as in, it's installed for your game - sometimes dlc doesnt download amd install even though you've asked steam to do it.

It has the ticks:

But still DLC cant be played on my game:

Maybe try unticking them and then re-ticking them and see if they download as sometimes it hasnt actually downloaded them. If not, im stumped, maybe someone else has some ideas or see what steam support can offer.

SOLVED!
The support from SEGA helped me:

Exit Steam.
Navigate to C:/Program Files/Steam (This may differ if you've changed Steam's installation path).
Find Steam.exe
Right-click on the files and select Run as administrator

It works now.

Congrats, it's horrible when these things happen!
