Unable To Launch Game

[Koozay]

Hello! OpenRCT2 was working fine earlier today but when I tried to launch it, it said unable to lauch game. I have no idea why, I uninstalled the launcher twice, still the same thing popped up, any ideas?

Does the game update when starting the launcher (is there a small loading bar next to the play button)? Can you check if the game files are there where they should be (documents/OpenRCT2) and start the game from there?

Going to the OpenRCT2 folder and deleting the "Bin" folder has worked for me in the past. Also in the past, I had trouble deleting OpenRCT2.exe. It would say I don't have proper permissions to delete the file (Even when I logged in as admin). In that case, I found OpenRCT2.exe was stuck in MalwareBytes and had to use process explorer to close that handle or whatever.

yes everything is where it should be.

Possible solutions:

1. Make sure your anti-virus doesn't block it from running.
2. Delete the bin folder and restart the launcher (this will force a reinstall of openrct2)
3. Go to documents/openrct2/bin and open openrct2.exe (run the game without the launcher)
