I am having the same issue. Tried redownloading, also by uninstalling first, and turning off windows defender, but no luck yet. Using Windows 11.
I'd recommend redownload the setup then exclude the file in "Virus & protection" area in the windows firewall, then run the setup as admin. After everything was downloaded, exclude the whole folder as well, and the shortcut that was made at desktop. Then - everything should run smoothly.
yes I unistall it all removed the folder.and install again over 20 times and all times new place .and every time exepctions.did all
same here.. i have disabled the windows defender before downloading the file. installed and try to play and still got the same error (windows defender is still off)
