You can also use your OS itself to try and fix the problem. Windows’ System File Checker comes in handy in situations like these. Open up your Command Prompt and issue the command “sfc /scannow” and let the machine do its thing. Restart after it’s done, and hopefully, that fixes your issue.

If all else fails, there’s the nuclear option of a system restore. Go through the Windows recovery process and restore it to an earlier date, and cross your fingers.
If none of the above works, you’re either the victim of some kind of weird malware, or you’re trying to run your game on an outdated OS. We wish you luck and short conversations with Microsoft support chat. Godspeed, gamers.
