Windows 10: Sid Meier's Sim Golf

This is getting frustrating...

I am the only user om my desktop. I have full administrator rights... and now when I launch the game it tells me that I need to login with administrator rights to PLAY THE GAME... WTF>>>?!?!?!?!?!?!?! I had administrator problems, that seems to be sorted out now, but now I can't play my games because I don't have administrator rights???? I am the administrator!!!!!!!!!!!!

Please help

I have tried to run it as administrator and then... nothing happens... it asks me to allow the game to make changes to, I say YES and DUD... Nothing.... nada... zilch

Trouble launching Civ: Beyond Earth

2017 May 14.

After new Windows Update ''Sid Meier's Civilization Beyond Earth'' won't open.

I Get a table with two options to choose:

-Play Sid Meier's Civilization: Beyond Earth

-Sid Meier's Civilization: Beyond Earth (AMD Mantle)

when I click on them neither works.

gent123,



Unfortunately, the Sid Meier's Pirates game is guaranteed to work only with phones running Windows Phone 7.5.

 

Have you tried specifically running the exe file as admin? Right Click on the exe and select "Run as Administrator" and see if that works.

 

Yep I've tried everything I'm restoring my computer now to see if that works

 

So I did a system restore 3 weeks back and I'm able to play again

 

I have found a way to get it running, but I cannot really discuss how I did it on this forum.

 

When going back three weeks that may be a bit too far back in order to isolate the particular update which may or may not even be an MS for Windows type. One fast option for repeat roll backs would be the need for the System Restore Point Shortcut option you see available in of the guides here. Before seeing the next batch of updates go on you create a new point as well as only allowing a few at a time to go on with a new point created in between each single update or each pair in order to keep the number down when having some 30 or more pending.

Once the problem reappears then you will know it will be in the last few right before seeing the problem return and can opt to hide those from being downloaded and installed again by a simply right click on the suspect to select the hide option. Switching from completely automatic to notify me first to schedule a restart can be a large help as well.

 

U think if I just bought the game again that it would work fine

 

Is this the game from 2002?

 

You were saying the problem started when a bunch of updates went on. Buying the same game a second time won't solve the issue without knowing which update or what else besides any particular update was the cause. You would simply end up "throwing good money after bad" until this gets sorted out or expect to run into the exact same problem all over again!
