i just wanted to run this game trough steam but it gave me the error message "u dont have permissions to open this file" sooooo i tried giving myself full rights trough security > advanced tab (Didnt work),

The next thing i tried was this but it gives me the error message: PermissionDenied: (G:\XBOX\Starfield\Content\Starfield.exe:String) [Set-Acl], UnauthorizedAccessException

Does anyone have an idea on how to fix this ?

    Hello,

    are you running powershell as an admin?

    Also, if your user has no permission to access the .exe, you'll probably run into issues with the remaining game files.
