Game not launching

Press button 'Play'
After one second, nothing happens, and the button reappears green.

I can't find the 'Strife' folder in Documents, which means the game never launched.

Hey. I know, you contacted us in Discord but since then we found solution for another player with same issue:

Q: Strife won't open on Windows, even if I open the local files and run strife.exe, and an error 0xc000007b (or similar to that code) appears. How can I make the game open?
A: Install all these versions (2013 and below):
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/windows/latest-supported-vc-redist?view=msvc-170
Visual Studio 2013 (VC++ 12.0)
Visual Studio 2012 (VC++ 11.0) Update 4 (no longer supported)
Visual Studio 2010 (VC++ 10.0) SP1 (no longer supported)
Visual Studio 2008 (VC++ 9.0) SP1 (no longer supported)
Visual Studio 2005 (VC++ 8.0) SP1 (no longer supported)

Ensure you install both x86 and x64 versions for each applicable redistributable.

Let me know if it solved issues for you.
