Fail to launch - pc version

Recommended Posts

So I've uninstalled and reinstalled the game on steam, updated graphics drivers, windows is up to date, verified game files and all is fine there.

However the game still does not want to open after all that. I've searched but could not find a definitive answer/fix.

Pc specs are above the min requirements. Can somebody please put me in the right direction in getting the game to work. Any and all help willbbe appreciated.

Managed to get it to work, went into game files, ran F1 2017 exe file as administer, gane opened up been playing ever since.
There should be absolutely no need to do this on Windows, there is something not correct with your configuration.

Plus we don't know which version of Windows you are running or whether you have a Standard or Administrator account. Standard accounts may hit all kinds of hiccups.

Thanks for posting back about the workaround but that is all it is. Anyone who has to run any kind of exe with different permissions other than normal elevations where necessary has other issues with that system.

I will look into that, I did do an update on Windows today but have not yet tried to try the 'proper' of launching the game.

I will however give it a go next time I play.

Running Windows 10.

Thanks for the responses.
