I have tried changing the compatibility settings and have tried everything else but it doesnt want to open at all. Please help with this. Go to Solution. May - last edited May For the first, in the game executables' compatibility setting, make sure that "run this program as Administrator" is set. Then check if a file called "options. If not, create them, using the template shown in this sticky thread. View in thread. Hey sorry i didnt list "everything" I tried.
I basically did both of the options you listed. The game is set to run as administrator, and I did change the options file a few times, just tampering with it then changing it back when it does not work. I uninstalled the game and origin many times trying to reset whatever I might have done, but it didnt work. I tried pasting some of the options files I found online from other people but that didnt work either.
I got a copy of the game from a friend to try it on my computer and I did everything he did to install it and get it to run but it still never worked, and he has a very similar computer to mine windows 10 also. No matter what I tried the game wont launch. It starts with the blue square box that says zerohour and then loads, screen turns black as if the game will play, but then it cuts to the desktop and gives me the "technical difficulties" message every single time.
I do not have viruses and my laptop is working fine. I dont know why it wont play when it was working fine before. Sorry for the ramble i just want to explain the situation as much as I can. If there's anything I am missing please let me know. It worked for everyone else but not me. I might be forgetting other methods I checked or did but If i remember more ill keep editing.

There is a chance GenPatcher gets flagged by your anti-virus as either a trojan or a virus. This is a false positive. GenPatcher is completely safe to use. The reason anti-virus software may flag it is because GenPatcher applies fixes to your game's Windows registry entries, as well as moving and deleting files that could cause game instability.
Therefore, to be on the safe side, the anti-virus software will block GenPatcher and prevent it from running. That's why it's recommended to switch off your anti-virus before downloading GenPatcher to ensure you won't run into any problems. You can find more information about this on the GenPatcher support page. The fix for this is to use d3d8to9-wrapper, which alleviates this issue by converting all Direct3D 8-API calls and low-level shaders to equivalent Direct3D 9 ones.
Note: Do not use this if you would like to play online, as using the d3d8to9-wrapper will result in increased chances of a mismatch. Message 3 of 14 39, Views.
