Try the regfix I posted at https://forums.ubisoft.com/showthrea...1#post15014109.
It seems to fix the game not starting up, provided you have the Steam release.
Same issue here - I get this error in the Windows Event Log under Applications:

And I tried the uninstall/reinstall FC4 and Ubisoft Connect including removing the Ubisoft key in registry - no difference at all.
FC4.exe is set to compatibility mode as Windows 7 with Administrator rights.

Please make sure AFTER you have installed your gameOriginally Posted by kmach3 Go to original post
Go to https://ubisoftconnect.com/ and install the updated version of UBI CONNECT / Steam does not provide this with the game files on games that shipped more then 1 month ago as yes they do UPDATE UBI CONNECT QUITE OFTEN \and yes steam may install an out dated version with your game files .
PLEASE see
https://www.ubisoft.com/en-gb/help/c...t-pc/000063173
ALWAYS WRITE DOWN THE E MAIL and password you use when creating any online account and store it in a safe place , your games will be bound to that account ..
AND make sure you back up your save files MANUALLY if you have other ubi titles installed
Please go here to see how to perform that step
https://www.ubisoft.com/en-gb/help/c...iles/000063179
or you can use a save game file manager program like this one
https://www.gamesave-manager.com/
Also ALWAYS run STEAM as well as UBI CONNECT and your game with ADMINISRATOR RIGHTS ENABLED
see this page https://www.ubisoft.com/en-us/help/c...ghts/000060505
verify your game files

..as well as RESTART your PC , <(ALWAYS REBOOT)> relaunch STEAM and UBI Connect and try your game again.
Additionally, for other issues you may wish to look into, that may be the cause of your problem ...
Please see the Ubisoft Support Troubleshooting page here and please go through the steps provided

Good luck , i hope you find your fix!
one other hint many users may have a problem on some windows installs .. if Ubi connect is not installed on the same drive as WINDOWS .. just install the UBI launcher on your C drive .. your games yes can be on any other drive .. but i think the launcher itself likes to be on the C drive
on some systems it may not matter .. but yes on some that one step............. may fix your issue
