Game does not run under Windows 7

Post by Mythbuster »

Hello,
I tried the acual Beta and the stable Version ... I installed them at different locations, and I tried to run Wesnoth in compatible modi (Vista / XP) ... but nothing helpy, the game crashes without any suggestions directly ...

Any ideas or help?

Thanks,
Mythbuster

i had this problem as well, the folder you installed it to could have been hidden by default. can you see the folder that you installed wesnoth to in windows explorer?

you shouldn't need to run it in compatability mode. i have windows 7 and they run fine. try reinstalling.

First time: Yes!
Second Time: No!

I tried both, standard install and custom settings ... I think I tried all I can imagine ... I tried it today also on my desktop (also German Windows 7, Ultimate Edition) with a new download ... same failure ... so I think it is time to give up and delete that game ...

Greetings,
