Thanks for your reply but I want to clarify what you stated because the game did not launch off line.

First, in the top right hand side under my username should the selection be marked as online or offline before I go to settings? Do I need to change this selection at any time during or after I set up the settings?

Then your instructions state:

Untick the Always start Uplay in the offline mode
(I assume this instruction and those following refer to the settings that appear in the spoked wheel to the left of my username.)

Exit the Launcher
(By “exit the launcher” what do you mean? Go to the “Home” tab, exit Uplay, close the settings dialog box?)

Start the launcher
(I assume you mean to go to the screen that has the large Play button and click on the Play button.)

Tick everything except Enable cloud save synchronization for supported games
(Does this mean I now tick the “Always start Uplay in the offline mode” that I had unticked in step one?

Exit the launcher
(Again - by “exit the launcher” what do you mean? Go to the “Home” tab, exit Uplay, close the settings dialog box?)

Start the launcher
(Again - I assume you mean to go to the screen that has the large Play button and click on the Play button.)

Sorry to be such a thick head, but I need more clairification or maybe I have to reinstall the game.

Thanks again for your help.
