Game won't start

[Mugen]

Hey i wanted to ask for help if anyone had the same isues so far.
I played the game for 2-3 days now, but yesterday i just couldnt start it from steam.
i deinstalled it already, booted my pc new and all the stuff i could come up with.
Does someone know a solution to this?

hello, sorry to revive this, but i have still this problem, after a week or so now. I have Windows 10 64 bit, and a GTX 770M with the latest drivers. If it is any relevant, there is an error given when i try to start the game in debug mode with visual studio 2015: Application load error T:0000065432, and the log (probably because i incorrectly used it):

OWOWOW, long log. Have you tried unin and reinstalling steam, I found that to be helpful with these issues.

[ŽiGG-A-]

my game won't start and i already tried reinstalling and verifying and ninja kiwi doesn't help at all

[ŽiGG-A-]

i spent a lot of money on skins and now ninja kiwi doesn't even respond when i write them about my problem

[Koala]

I think i've got the answer... if you go to local files of btdb and you try launching the game from the .exe that is there it'll probably say that api-ms-win-crt-runtime-l1-1-0.dll is missing. Try downloading that .dll and put it into btdb local files

[Ylwole]

it is so annoying i played it last year and wanted to play again but i wont start i tryed all the things u said but it didnt work (i have windows 10) + i bought the club thingy and wanted to play with my little brother pls help me

[ihShizeJeff]

"retrying sign-in" followed by "having trouble signing in. please try again later"

same problem with another steam account on my laptop...

not working after deinstallation/reinstall
