What if you're on Windows 10 64 bit and the game won't launch? I've tried switching folders it downloads into, even switching drives, but the game never gets past a window and a white screen. Any help or ideas??

yeah, sounds like what I had to troubleshoot with another person, there may be a few pre-requisites to get these, but it all depends on what updates you already have gotten from natural updates so it's different for everyone, if you're fully updated and always get updates whenever prompted you should be able to just download this and go.
