    Game runs in background instead of launching.

    I purchased For Honor yesterday on Steam and initially everything ran very well. However, I've run into an issue, the game runs as a background application instead of starting along with EAC. I think EAC is normally a background app but For honor normally runs in the normal application registry.

    Here's what I've tried so far.
    - Reinstalling the game : Initially had the game installed on my external Hard drive, reinstalled the game to my C drive.
    - Validating game files through steam : it downloaded 2 mbs and after trying to launch the game again, still nothing.
    - Restarting computer : This also had no effect.
    - closing discord and skype: this actually worked, however, after trying to play this morning it didn't work this time around, only yesterday.


    Currently making a DXdaig file for my Googledrive to help with my system specs.
    here's a brief rundown on what I have.
    GPU: RX580
    CPU: FX8370
    RAM: 16GB
    OS: Win10

    I'm going to continue trying to fix this and I'm very new to UBI's website so I'm also going to try their tech support but I'm skeptical.

    Thank you for taking the time to read this and have a good day.

    Hey TAZADAR101, please try any of these steps you haven't. If that doesn't help, please add a MSINFO to your ticket and let me know when you've done so. Thanks!
