They Are Billions

Wont Launch + Steps Ive tried
Have over 300 hours on the game, played it way back when. Reinstalled recently and now the game wont fully launch.

Two things I notice missing, hinting at an improper install:
ZXLog file
Configuration.txt file

Steps Ive done to try to install properly, with the note that ive turned off windows defender as well as make allowances for the app on security apps. Radeon software uninstalled. Riot Vanguard uninstalled. Everything has been done with a computer reset:
Update and install DX
Update and install SlimDX
Checked that the following files didnt exist:
{DXVision.dll
DXPlatform_Desktop.dll
ICSharpCode.SharpZipLib.dll
Steamworks.NET.dll}
Restart and update steam
Run steam as admin
Run game as admin
Install game from steam as admin

Computer Specs:
Operating System: Windows 11 Pro 64-bit (10.0, Build 22631) (22621.ni_release.220506-1250)
Processor: AMD Ryzen 5 3600 6-Core Processor (12 CPUs), ~3.6GHz
DirectX Version: DirectX 12
Card name: Radeon RX 580 Series


Anything that I am missing?

There is something blocking a proper intallation of the game.

If I haven't undertan bad, you say there is not ZXLog file in the path Documents/My Games/They are Billions?

This file is pivotal for the game to run.

You understand correctly, this file does not exist regardless of how i install the game. I have tried everything listed above.
I can't get by installing SlimDX Runtime .NET. On steam just shows "Running install script ()" and nothing happens.

Having similar issue today with fresh windows 11 install. Pretty sure Windows 11 has broken something and this game is now unusable.

Have you check the game files integrity?
