Steam Error: Application load error 3:0000065432

[RAGZ]

I try launching the game and all i get is "Steam Error: Application load error 3:0000065432" before the game even loads. I tried verifying the game files, i tried rebooting, i tried upgrading gfx driver and i tried reinstalling the game. it's the same error every time. What do i do?

I dont own the game but have seen that same error with a few other people on different games. Do you have the game installed in the default steam game directory? if not move it there and try. Also if nothing else seems to work some users have reported reinstalling steam all together fixes the issue.

Hi folks, sorry to hear you're having trouble launching the game.

Unfortunately, more likely than not this has nothing to do with Draugen; something else is probably preventing the game from starting up. It's very hard for us to debug, but you may want to verify your game files in Steam, and temporarily disable anti-virus services. Failing that, try to reinstall Draugen.

This is vague and potentially very unhelpful, we know, but we don't get any error logs from this problem, as it occurs before the game is even able to launch.

You may want to Google this error message, since it appears to be a relatively common problem with multiple games.

If nothing fixes the problem, you can of course request a refund from Steam and try purchasing and running the game from another storefront.

Ok, i use F-Secure. This causes my problem.

I temporarily disabled F-Secure and my Windows Firewall ask me for access. Then i added a rule in F-Secure for the game. Now it works.

Thx

I had the same problem. I also use F-Secure. I solved the problem by adding the file Draugen.exe to the F-Secure DeepGuard excluded files. After doing this, Windows Firewall asked for access permission for the game. After giving the permission, the game started to work.
On my computer, Draugen.exe was located here:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Draugen\Draugen.exe
