How to get games with Denuvo to work? It seems ti be hardware/software related.
It's starting to look like my laptop doesn't like games with Denuvo. Games fail to launch, crash to desktop, etc.

Are there certain programs that interfere with Denuvo? My work desktop doesn't seem to have this problem.

What are the full specs of the laptop amd what OS build are you using?

Post a CPUZ validation

You sure Win10 is all up to date. Along with Drivers?

Are you getting the drivers from AMD and Nvidia or through Windows Updates?
Yup, Windows is completely up to date. I'm getting the drivers from directly from AMD and Nvidia, although my AMD drivers were out of date. It doesn't seem to make much of a difference. I'm still crashing/failing to launch.

See if there are any Winodws Logs pointing to what the issu might be.

Find the folder where your particular offline tokens are stored, and delete either the file named dbdata (for ancient versions of Denuvo) or the random number files with no extension.

Do you have any programs installed that hook into critical system DLL files? If so, try disabling or removing those programs. Also run the following commands in an Administrator Command Prompt to ensure your OS files aren't damaged:
DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-Image /Restorehealth sfc /scannow
Then reboot and try again.

For most games using Denuvo Anti-Tamper and Steam DRM the following servers must be reachable:
srv01.codefusion.technology Port 443 srv02.codefusion.technology Port 443 srv03.codefusion.technology Port 443
For games on Steam published by WB games this additional server must be reachable:
revalidate.wbgames.com Port 443

Mostly that over and over from trying to start the game. Sometimes it'll launch right after I reboot.

Try deleting the offline token files (the random number files) found in Steam\userdata\<your id>\1649080 and relaunching.

Going by the faulting module name GameAssembly.dll (which by the way is the module wrapped with Denuvo in this case) it would appear the game runs in Unity; make sure you aren't having any problems running any other games built with Unity, going by the .exe version which is the Unity Player would appear to be version 2020.3.

It didn't work. I can run other games using Unity just fine. It's only games with Denuvo that this happens with. I have the same problem with Persona 4 Golden. Rimworld runs fine.
