HanjinHanamura Posted August 9 Report Posted August 9 Had to replace the main drive on my PC after the old one bricked, and after some misadventures it's up and running as a clean slate, no real differences in operation than before that I can remember, but now I can't get Vintage Story to launch when I click on the .exe, even with Run as Administrator. Running on Windows 10, I've got .NET 10 installed, the .exe just doesn't do anything for some reason. Reinstalling it fresh with the installer placing it in it's own folder on my C drive gives a 740 permission error upon trying to run it immediately after install before just giving me nothing on subsequent attempts. At this point I have no idea why it's refusing to run and it's getting more than a little bit frustrating.
hstone32 Posted August 9 Report Posted August 9 (edited) What happens when you try to run the .exe from the terminal? That might give a more detailed error message. If that still doesn't tell you anything, try running it with the --logPath option set to get a printout of the log, or else locate where the logs are saved by default. Edited August 9 by hstone32 Thougt to suggest looking at the log.
HanjinHanamura Posted August 9 Author Report Posted August 9 I'm even more confused now, because the .exe works flawlessly now and as far as I know, I didn't do anything that would fix it other than turning my computer all the way off and then back on instead of restarting, since I tried restarting it a few times to see if that'd help since I saw that was a possible solution. Not gonna complain, but I wish I knew what I did so anyone else that has this problem can fix it more easily.

It's been the better part of a decade since I last used windows, but from what I can remember, that's just how it is.
