win 11 update

[johnkennard115work]

SINCE UP-DATING TO WIN 11 PRO, Lara croft and the Guardian og Light wont start ?.

[Cyanmurder]

Im running win 11, it runs fine for me.

[AbedsBrother]

Doesn't run for me either. fwiw Temple of Osiris runs fine.

[SteveMc1969]

It doesn't for me on Windows 11 and I've even tried it with compatibility options for earlier Windows, no success there either. How do you get this to run on Windows 11?

[MasterGeorgie]

Same problem

[unrealtruman1234]

I just got the game running on my end ( windows 11 ) Right click the game on steam and select properties, from there you will see the selected launch option, make sure this is selected to setup gaurdian of light. Once that has been done click play and it should run a few set up files such as direct x, once complete go into launcher and select resolution and settings. Once all has completed, go back into properties and change launch option to play gaurdian of light and the click play and it should run perfectly. Hopefully this helps a few folks.

I also had a problem that the game did not launch on Windows 11, I saw the advice that the game needs to be installed on drive C, then when you start the game through Steam you have to wait a little, it will install the drivers and the game will start.

My game is installed on the C drive.

I fixed this today by manually installing the extra requirements for the game.

When you first launch the game it is meant to install DotNet 3.5 and Visual C++ Redistributable 2005 but it doesn't. I manually installed them and now it works.

Here's what I did:

Install DotNet 3.5
https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/download/details.aspx?id=21

Install Visual C++ Redistributable 2005 (this is an all in one pack, you only need to install 2005 x64)
https://www.techpowerup.com/download/visual-c-redistributable-runtime-package-all-in-one/

Opened Steam, right clicked on the game and clicked on Properties, clicked on Installed Files, clicked on Verify integrity of game files.

Ran the game from Steam, chose Setup Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light.

Game setup opened, I chose the settings I wanted.

Ran the game again, chose Play Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light.

Game started fine!

So, the DotNet 3.5 doesn't install on all windows 11 computers, some like my own will just act like it won't install.

What you can do to make it work is search "Windows features on and off" on your windows, and then open the .net 3.5 folder (it has a longer name) and enable both check boxes within, and then restart after you confirm the selection.

ohterwise, sadly online won't work.

Neither the above, nor any of the other suggestions on the forums have worked for me.

[Jimmis Atha]

it only runs on Win10 (or Android), set both Steam & game exe as admin+compatibility, play first the setup, secondly the game.

Nope, doesn't work.

[Jimmis Atha]

Try Shift+right click the exe - run as different user, or dgvoodoo2 drive.google.com/file/d/1k8-ypgnqY47sck3v4vNOFpuMo3h6LkJr/view and drive.google.com/file/d/1Gk2GfDLPSNUr71vdFg4HTm7h_KIetteq/view or
