Hello! I installed a game and keep receiving the same error when trying to launch it. I've uninstalled and reinstalled multiple times with no such luck and just get the same message. I tried googling the error message and cant find anyone with the same error code.. I cant believe that I'm the only person with this issue, I appreciate any help whatsoever! Its so frustrating, im not sure if its a windows problem or maybe graphics but everything I have is up to date

    Hi Adoreer,

    I'm Paul and I'm here to help you with your concern.

    I suggest that you perform a repair/in-place upgrade to fix the system.

    Follow the instructions below.

    A. Downloading the Windows 10 ISO file.

    1. Download the tool (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=691209), and select Run. You need to be an administrator to run this tool.
    2. If you agree to the license terms, select Accept.
    3. On the What do you want to do? page, select Create installation media for another PC and then select Next.
    4. Select the language, edition, and architecture (64-bit or 32-bit) for Windows 10. (Select the same as the currently installed system on your PC)
    5. In "Select which media you want to use", Select ISO file then click Next.
    6. Select the download location then click Save.
    7. Windows 10 ISO file will be downloaded,

    B. Repair Upgrade installation.

    1. Right-click Windows 10 ISO file and click Mount.
    2. Open/run the Setup.exe.
    3. The preparation starts
    4. To get important updates, select Download and install updates. (Wait while checking for updates).
    5. Accept the terms of the license agreement
    6. The installation is ready to be applied, verify the information and ensure that "Keep personal files and applications is checked".
    7. Click on Install to start the upgrade.

    I hope this helps. Feel free to ask back any questions and keep me posted.
