Important
Your game should not be installed in the Program Files (x86) restricted directory.
If this is so then I would suggest that you uninstall and re-install again, use a registry cleaner before re-booting your system.
You may have found that you cannot patch the Generic File Patcher (GFP) which this fix will now sort out.
Here is my Dvd SH5.exe which works with the Uplay download version.
Download
http://www.mediafire.com/file/s65f2i...5.exe.zip/file
Instructions.
Cut and paste the current SH5.exe to a convenient place.
Download the zip file into your SH5 game folder.
Unzip the file and use the Extract Tab.
Cut and paste the zip file to a convenient place, this is now your backup.
Check that the new SH5.exe is set to run as an administrator.
If you have previously restored the gps snapshot file (TWoS players) then you need to, ”Disable all patches” first even if you can see 9 patches.
Now close the GFP.
Open the GFP again and patch the files to the new SH5.exe and you should see 9 patches.
TWoS users only.
Restore the gps snapshot file.
All.
Close the GFP.
You should now be able to start the game.

Hi Peter,
Thx. Very much along the line of my solution. Still a shame that I cannot sunchronize with the cloud since I play the game on my desktop as well as on my laptop.
regards,
Marc
