So I just upgraded to Windows 10. This game is great, and worked when I still had Win 7! XD
However, when I got to open the game, an icon on the startbar comes up for a bit and immediately closes. I don't get a window or anything. Changing the config file to windowed mode makes an outline pop up but that's about it.

Following the FAQ, changing administrator rights did not help. Neither did modifying the DPI. Neither did setting compatibility mode to Win 7. Pretty sure I have the latest graphics drivers. Anyone else having the same problem?

Same problem here. Also tried compatability mode, no dice. Hope we get a patch soon!

As for windows 10 being spyware, have a read of this article:
http://www.zdnet.com/article/microsoft-releases-new-license-terms-for-windows-10-no-surprises/
I believe the licensing agreement has changed substantially between the technical preview and the commercial version. Sounds like it's OK now :)

It works fine for me on win10 without any settings change.
Maybe a problem with your installation of .NET Framework or something like that.
Did u make a clean install of win10 or just upgraded from win7 or win8?

Do I just download and install 4.5.1?
I upgraded from Win7.
As for the EULA, I don't think I particularly care about targeted ads.

works ok for me on Windows 10 coming from windows 8

For the guys where CTW is working, are you guys on a 32-bit system or a 64-bit system? This may sound like a dumb question, but I've been trying to run CTW through Windows Debugger. It looks like there's a memory exception happening early on in the process.

EDIT: it seems to happen after loading WoW64.dll and WoW64win.dll which translates between 32-bit and 64-bit machine calls. Applications might load these by default, but I just want to be sure.

64 bit, I will be honest I have no idea why anyone would want to run 32bit operating system nowadays but I am sure there are some reasons.

I'm on 64bits OS,
After a little research, i found that .NET Framework should install/update automatically if required, so it isn't the cause of your problem.

Hi,
first of all try to reinstall directx and graphics driver.

I have directx 12 installed and driver 353.62, both seem to be the latest.

Please send your log file ( %AppData%/Dekovir/CraftTheWorld/crafttheworld.log) at gamesoftdevelopment@gmail.com

Sparticus, your log file is outdated, created on win7. Maybe steam is unable to launch the game, try to fully remove game files and reinstall. You can also reinstall vcredist, follow "you crafttheworld steam path\_CommonRedist\vcredist\2013" and install vcredist_x64.exe or vcredist_x86.exe.

Awesome! It works! Thank you so much. I think reinstalling the vcredist and restarting did the trick

I have a similar problem, but i have win8 and now have win10, when i run the game i cant play beacause dont load the start screen
