Steam and Uplay issues, can't start game!

[PanzerDan86]

Hey Guys,

I didn't get any responses to my question a couple of days ago. And I think it was because I wrote WAYY to much! haha!

Here's my problem: I had to delete Steam and Uplay and all associated games from my C drive to save space. I moved them all to D drive. SH5 would not start at all from the D drive. I tried to fix it but couldnt.

I JUST NOW uninstalled Uplay/Steam and all other games from those applications completely (even did a regedit to delete the keys) and re-installed Uplay on the C drive.

I downloaded my SH5 copy from Uplay ( have two, one from Steam and one from Uplay) and installed it. It even automatically did the patch to upgrade to version 1.2.

All that has now been done! However, when I click on "Play" in Uplay...nothing happens. I get a spinning hourglass/blue circle thingy for a few seconds and then nothing at all happens.

Has anyone had this problem? Does anyone have any advice?

I've looked in my C directory and the game is installed there. This is what my directory looks like:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher - inside game launcher directory are several files (cache, data, locales, and logs) it looks pretty normal to me.

However, SH5 is in ANOTHER place on the C drive. Here's where it's located:

C:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5

Its not going under program files for some reason. Could this be the problem? If so, how to fix it?

FYI, the default destination for all Uplay downloads is set to be C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\games - however, as I've shown, it's not going there for some reason. There isn't even a "games" folder inside the Ubisoft Game Launcher directory location.

Ugh!!! I'm so frustrated! I've spent since the 23rd or 24th trying to get SH5 to work. I've uninstalled and re-downloaded it something like 7 or 8 times now!!!

ANY HELP IS GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!
