[FIX] Anyone who can't launch Might and Magic: Heroes VI.
Anyone who can't launch Might and Magic: Heroes VI, try this...
  1. Install the game through Steam as normal (try and launch it to see if it works)
  2. Download latest UPlay: http://uplay.ubi.com/en-GB/about/download
  3. Install it to wherever UPlay is ALREADY INSTALLED TO (Mine was \Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\)
  4. Once installation is complete, try launching the game from Steam again.
This fixed it for me, the only extra step I did was verifying the integrity of the game files after Step 1 (https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=2037-QEUH-3335).

Thanks.

If this doesn't fix the probleme add this extra step :

- Go the the Uplay path \Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\
- Find Uplay.exe and set Run as administrator

Solved the last issue for me!

i think i don't have Uplay
but i would like to try out the stand alone for HoMM 6 .

strange i have never played Uplay games on this laptop but i have an account with
Uplay it says . Maybe i have tried out some of the browser games ,which require
Uplay? Are there some browsers ,requiring Uplay . Something like Settlers online ,
vague memories on my part . Or MMO like APB reloaded?

I just found Uplay folder and forced it to run from admin a few times. Without starting a game, just Uplay. It worked.

If you can't download the latest version, I think you can also go to:
\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Might and Magic Heroes VI\Support\
and run the file there called "UbisoftGameLauncherInstaller-0255.exe" or something similar as administrator.
The manual is also in the same folder.
