we have to do so try launch the game now most probably this is a shortcut and apart from this I'll be showing you what you have to do next that is instead of like I said we can navigate with the installation folder go over here to this PC go to local d c go to the program fx86 go for steam go over here in the steam apps go to the common now from here we have to navigate to Horizon Horizon forbidden West complete edition open this folder and we have the application so from here we can launch the game both the steps can be considered one we have a shortcut from the steam another one we navigate to the installation folder using the file explorer so just launch the game frame here then that will be working fine if that is not the case we have to move to the next one that is all about hence within the installation folder I'll be showing you third and fourth step that is all about launching the game or running the game as administrator and also running the game in the compatiability mode for this just go over here in the game right click go to the show more option from here go to the properties go over here in the compatibility click on run this program in the compatibility mode first set this to Windows 7 and go for apply or you can go for Windows 8 and go for apply next one is all about click on run this program as administrator and that is also very important step click on run this program as administrator go for apply and go for okay and once afterwards just close everything and we have to go back and try load the C once you're done with this one still if you're having the trouble the next one is all about we have to make sure is the next one make sure date time and region is correct so just go over here in the search navigate to the settings now from here we have to go to time and language go for date and time go over here in the time zone automatically should be turned it on time automatically should be turn it on and this should be turn it on as well three things should be turn it on now we have to go back go to the language and region from here make sure you have to select country according to geography if you're from United States select United States if you're from urugay select urug if you're from United Kingdom select United Kingdom do it accordingly once afterwards go back and try Larch the game next one is all about launch the game and we have to press alt and tab together simultaneously whenever you wanted to launch the game this even help with many users you can try this out I don't know how this is related you can try this out if that is not the case let's move to the fifth step that is all about we have to delete the saved game file so just go over here in the file explorer we have to navigate to this PC go to the uh documents over here now from here you will be able to find the folder for the Horizon forbid and West complete edition just delete this respective folder okay when you delete this you'll be losing all the progessions of the game but that is fine you have to start from the scratch once again but even this worth a lot even for many users it help us you can try this sir next one seventh step is all about we have to allow the game to window security so just go over here in the search go for control panel search for the control panel click on this one now we have to go to system and security go for Windows Defender Firewall click on allow app or feature through Windows Defender Firewall keep scrolling down and navigate to Horizon forban okay keep scrolling down hence it is an alphabet keep scrolling down and you'll be able to reach over here in the edge sorry okay Horizon forbidden West is already added make sure the private and public both has to be marked so if the game is not here don't get panicked we can add it by default just click on the Chain setting go for allow another app go for browse navigate to this PC go to local DC go to the program for x86 go for steam navigate to steam apps go to the common now from here navigate to Horizon forbidden vest complete select this one and go for open and we have to add it I'm getting the error because the game is already added so I cannot add it once again so if the game is there you're fine with it make sure the private and public is Market or else we can add the game just close everything and we have to go back and try launching the game next one is all about we have to unplug all the USB devices so right now as you can see in my computer which I'm been shooting the video it's already and connected to the joystick so it's an external device apart from this many other things we connected so sometimes these even cause the issue up so just unplug all the external USB devices which is connected on a computer and try launch the game once you launch the game and you're in the game you can try connect it back and try continue this so just open your game and once after the game is launched successfully just you'll be getting these kind of messages and just launch the game so once you're launching with the game and you're in the game you can just connect back the external controllers and afterwards just get in the game just click on the play button once afterwards just connect the controllers back and you can try continue playing the game that is what we have to do next one is all about nothing but we have to perform a clean boot so just go over here in the search go for system configuration just search for system configuration and open this one go for the services and go for hide all microsof services okay just click on disable all go for hide all microsof services go for apply and go for okay now from here we have to go for exit without restart once afterwards just go back and try launching the game and that is what we have to do even after trying with this if the isue is still there do not get panicked you can try a few more steps and that is all about we have to disable the steam overlay so just go over here in the game right click go to the properties go over here make sure if this turn it on we have to turn this off once you turn this off try launch the game next one is all about nothing but we have to give the commands in the launch option the first command is start with dx11 so if dx11 is is not working try with dx12 so either the dx11 will be working or you have to start with the dx12 so I don't know how how you guys going to accept this but this is one of the main step which worked for many games in my knowledge in the past so you can try this particular step which is very important next one is all about nothing but we have to run the game on dedicated graphics card so just go over here search for the graphics settings over here search for the graphics settings now from here what we need to do is we just need to add the game so just click on the browse now from here navigate to this PC go to the local DC go to program fx86 go for steam navigate to steam apps go for steam apps go to the common Now navigate to the game Horizon forbidden vest select this one and go for add so once the game is added just click on the option from this let Windows to side change this to high performance NV gece RTX go for Save close everything and once you close everything just go back to the game try launch the game even rning the game on dedicated graphics card did work out for many users so you can try this out as well next one is all about we have to increase the virtual memory just go over here in the search go for view Advanced system setting just search for this one open this one navigate to the advaned tab over here go to the settings go for the advanced go for change make sure this is blank and select the lockal C go for the custom size set the value initial size that is 1.5 * the rottle dram and the maximum size 3 three times a total Ram so just go over here navigate to the calculator now from here you have to type the ram so 32 GB is my Ram type the ram 32GB multiply it with 1024 that brings you this particular value multiply it with 1.5 that brings you 14952 and we have to copy this okay next one that is maximum size 32 GB multiplied with 1024 and we have to multiply it with three that brings you 9834 and we have to copy this and we have to paste it so go for okay everything should be done and go back and try launch the game so increasing the vual memory is a very important step it helped many users especially for the games like you know WWE 2K 24 for uh what I have to say FIFA and even it worked for many other games you can try this S as well next one is all about nothing but we have to update the windows so just go over here go to the settings now from here go to the Windows update and just update the windows for game like this one it just necessarily need the windows should be up to date or else you'll be having the trouble so just update the windows once afterwards just go back and try launch the game next one is all about we have to update the graphics card so just go over here I'll be providing a link in the description to both Nvidia as well as to the AMD the Nvidia users has to go over here select the details over here for example you have to select the product type if you're on G4 select G if you're on the Titan select Titan so minus gfos I have to select this one then we have to go for you have you have to select the product series minus GCE RTX 4 Series is mine so I have to select this one and you have to select the configuration the product should be 4090 in my case I have to select the windows 11 because I'm on Windows 11 and go for start search now what happens is you'll be getting the latest released versions of graphics card so over here as you can see uh you have to take a new one so I'll be selecting this one and go for start search so uh you'll be you can see there a lot of driver versions are available so [Music] Microsoft Visual C++ that can also be done so I'll be providing link if the system is based on x64 you can download this one if the system is based on x86 you can download this one install restart as a mandatory and try launch the game and also you can try installing the direct X just go to this link you can download this one and install it that is also working for many users as well still if you're having the trouble with the game I would be recommending you try these two steps and one among them is all about you have to uninstall the game and you have to reinstalling it back to a new local disk so just go over here go to the manage and uninstall the game when you're reinstalling it back so right now as you can see I'm on local DC I have to try installing it back on D or e or any other lock list which I'm available not on the same lock list which you first installed and once after done with this one try launch the game this even help it and I found this from the Reddit so this is actually a time consuming process but even though it worked for many users you can try the S last and the least one is all about nothing but it is all about we have to verify Integrity of game file so the verify Integrity of game file is actually it's going to check all the files of a game and if any files are corupted and if any files are missing all isues will be fixed by this so just go over here in the game right click and go to the properties go for installed file and just click on to verify Integrity of game file so this will crosstick every single files of a game and if any files are crafted and if any files are missing these kind of issues can pop up so it is very important so we just need to wait this to reach 100% and I'll be showing you what we have to do [Music] [Music] next [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] you [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] you [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] so once you're done with this one just close everything and try launch the game and that'll be working fine and these possible urance can be done I hope this video is helpful see you soon in the next video bye-bye
