  2. Problem with opening a game.

    Hi Omar,

    Issues launching the game may be caused by several reasons. The components of the game might be corrupted or you need to install new updates for the game itself.

    To resolve your concern, we suggest that you restart your computer to normal startup to disable unnecessary apps running in the background of your computer while you are using it. Kindly follow the steps below:

    • Press Windows + R on the keyboard.
    • Type msconfig, and then click OK.
    • On the General tab, click the Normal Startup, and then click OK.
    • When you are prompted to restart the computer, click Restart.

    If you are still experiencing the same issue, check for new updates on Windows Store by following the steps on this

    link
    . download and install the updates, and then launch the game again.

    We will appreciate if you can update us the results so if these solutions won't work, we will find another way to resolve your concern.
