    I haven't been able to play WoR since the update



    I've reinstalled, I've deleted ALL folders and reinstalled, I've verified my files, I've cleared my cache, I've prayed to Athena, I've sacrificed a goat.

    What now?

    Please download and install the latest redistributables: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/...al-c-downloads

    Which one did you try installing?

    Please try installing this one: https://aka.ms/vs/16/release/vc_redist.x64.exe

    If that doesn't work please try this one: https://aka.ms/vs/16/release/VC_redist.arm64.exe

    If the above doesn't work, please make sure your windows (what version is it? I'm guessing Windows 7 as that continues to produce issues for us) is fully updated via the windows update app.

    Nope, it's Windows 10 and I made sure it was updated today after reading up more on my issue. Many other help threads claimed it was a virus protection issue, and that the needed file(s) were being blocked by an anti-virus program, but I only have Windows Defender and I made exceptions to the entire War Of Rights folder at this point.

    No this one particular issue is not related to any kind of anti virus software to the best of my knowledge. It's news to us that fully updated windows 10's won't work, however.

    It's tied to us having upgraded to the 2019 version of the redistributables in the first of the recent hotfixes. I've passed your feedback on to the programmers in an effort to solve the issue and will get back to you when they have responded.

    Sorry for the inconvenience.

    Update: I've fixed the issue. Took an entire Windows reinstall, but WoR works now.

    Hmm okay, thanks for the update.

    It is of course not a proper way to fix the problem (far too extreme a solution). We will continue to investigate this but I'm glad you managed to fix it.
