any folder name will work as long as it is not the default Program Files.
good luck.


SH4 is in C:\UbiSoft\Silent Hunter 4. I changed the resolution in Cfg to match my computer, fiddled with the SH4.exe property settings(compatibility, etc. Still doesn't even try to start. Every thing worked fine until Microsoft installed a second March cumulative update KB5001649 on the 23rd.. I guess I could try removing that update and see what happens. I can't believe I'm the only person having this problem.


I removed KB5001649 - still doesn't work.


Went into config and set resolution 10 1024X768 and it starts. Set to 1920X1080 in game options and I'm up and running.
