Got the same problem / error message...

Run Steam with administrator privileges and try again please

[Darth Crow]

I have the same problem. Tried running Steam with admin privileges, no luck :/

EDIT: Actually, looking at the error message, mine's a little different.
At the end it says '... returned 2'

EDIT 2: Just to confirm - restarting (first Steam, then the PC) didn't help either.

EDIT 3: Solved it. My antivirus (Avast) decided the .exe file was malicious and put it into quarantine. I recovered it and it works now.

Had in fact the same error message as Darth Crow above. The antivirus was indeed guilty. thanks for the fix !

I fixed it by going into the local files of mordhau then to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Mordhau\Mordhau\Binaries\Win64 then right clicking Mordhau-Win64-Shipping and unchecked "run this program as administrator.

I have the same problem as Darth Crow but i don't know how to get the shipping.exe back, could you explain to me where to get it?

I tried your solution and now it at least tries running it but when I attempt to run it it says "Launching Mordhau" and then it says "Mordhau is attempting to run with the optional parameters shown below" and below it says "Mordhau" I select OK. Then it gives me the exact message again but below instead of saying "Mordhau", it says "Mordhau Mordhau" and every time I select ok it comes back up again saying "Mordhau Mordhau Mordhau Mordhau"

Mordhau Mordhau is the folder it’s is in. For some reason when you enter the Mordhau folder, there is another folder named Mordhau in it.

When I try to do that, it says that " The Specified Path does not exist. Check the path then try again.

This has already happend to me twice and i fixed the first by reinstalling mordhau and I ain't gonna do that everytime I want to play..

Did you every fix this problem? I am having the same issue, I’ve done everything on this post but I get the same error message as you about not finding the specified path.

If you added admin rights to Mordhau under the details tab of the task manager, that could be your problem. I don't remember the error I got but I was trying to be savvy and increase priority, etc for Mordhau. I added admin privileges to Mordhau under the details tab and it screwed everything up.
