Game used to launch, but now won't launch

[Dan the Man]

I have already played 66 hours of the game, then took a couple months off, then it just won't boot up anymore. I hit play, the ubisoft launcher comes up, then goes away and the game never launches, I'm already using the cmd /c "set OPENSSL_ia32cap=:~0x20000000 && %command%" launch argument which fixed it when I first got it, and now I've tried verify game files, reinstalling the game, and reinstalling Uplay, but it still won't start. Anyone have anything else I can try?

same problem here. Ive tried everything I read in others posts, but nothing.... Some times, when I try to launch the game several times in line (after every fail running, some time even at the main menu of the game), I finally get the game starts, like it should always do... But I dont know why :(

go on discord to the ubisoft channel. They are working on this problem but they don't have a solution yet.

for anyone else having this issue, uninstalling both the game and Uplay then reinstalling them both on my SSD finally made it launch again. can't garuntee that will help everyone but it finally fixed it for me.

I opened a ticket to the support of Ubisoft. They are working on a fix.

Hey guys,

Can I just check if the kind advice Dan the Man has shared has helped others also launch the game?

Many thanks in advance

I have the same issue as Dan the Man. When I tried to launch the game after several months, it wouldn't start. When I click the play button on Steam, a launcher or something briefly appears on the display for about 0.1 seconds and then disappears, and the play button in Steam returns to its original state. Of course, I've tried the launch command, reinstalled both the game and Ubisoft Connect, and checked the file integrity, but I still can't launch the game. I hope the day will come when I can play again.

I've also got the exact same issue. Deleted both the game and ubisoft connect and reinstalled them both onto my c drive but the issue still remains.

I tried it - no luck. Strangely, I wasn't able to find how to install non-beta version of Ubisoft Connect. Both website and bundled (in Trials Rising build) installers are resulting in beta version of Uplay installed on my PC.

I suppose the game is trying to talk to either EAC, steam.dll or even Uplay Client itself, it fails to communicate and then game silently closes.

In procmon logs the game crashes right after accessing .\Trials Rising\datapack\uplay_r1_loader64.dll. I see trialsrising.exe is doing CreateFileMapping on this dll three times (each results in "FILE LOCKED WITH ONLY READERS") after which I see multiple threads are exiting and process create operation for WerFault.exe. However, it could be a false lead since the game has already successfully called load image operation on this dll couple seconds before.

I wasn't able to catch crash dump but I found wer fault entry for it - Fault Module Name: shell32.dll. Looking for shell32.dll in procmon I see that the game successfully loaded the dll but later failed with buffer overflow on QuerySecurityFile operation. However, the very next event is the same op but result is success.

Since I have 14th gen Intel CPU I did couple of launches with down clocked processor to make sure I will isolate any stability issues related to Intel.

Everything is installed on the main C drive.

Same problem happening here, i7 13700k - trials splash screen, ubisoft launcher opens, then nothing.

Just purchased the game, fresh install.

Ubi - can you please just give up your darn launcher, it's been a problem on PC from day 1.
