Resolved Having a Strange Issue that is keeping me from playing the game.

Users who are viewing this thread

I am not able to launch mb warband.exe through steam or the download from Taleworld. Every time I try to launch the game it just asks for permissions and then does nothing. I have uninstalled and reinstalled, verified files, I have tried deleting the Mount&Blade Warband file in Documents but it says that it is running even after restarting my computer. When I look in task manager under details I can see that it is running even right after a full system restart, when I try to stop it from running it just says access denied even in administrator mode. Is there some uninstaller I can download to fully wipe it off my computer? I cannot even download it again from the website, because it says it can't write some files so I can't get the uninstaller that came with the game back after I tried to delete the folder.

PC SPECS:
-Ryzen 9 5950x
-Nvidia RTX 3070
-32GBs DDR4 RAM
-ASUS B550 series motherboard

I really wanna play this game again and am happy to provide any additional information needed to resolve my issue, as it stands I am not able to use a product that I paid for.
 
For anyone else having this issue try launching windows in safe mode, fixed it for me since it closed all the instances of m&b letting me delete them then redownload the game. The game is now working flawlessly.
