Applications and programs not launching (Win 10)

[Obelisk27]

Hello all  

 

I've been getting a lot of helpful answers out of the forums and I wanted to know if anyone has run into this issue of mine.

 

I just set up my new PC, which has the following specs:

- ASUS ROG STRIX B550-F GAMING WIFI II 

- Ryzen 7 5800x

- MSI RTX 3060 (12GB)

- 2 x 8 GB G.SKILL Ripjaws

- SAMSUNG NVMe SSD 980 (500 GB)

 

Armoury crate has run just fine, I believe I have all the necessary drivers installed, I had to manually install LAN and Wireless on the machine before it went ahead and installed the rest on its own.

 

As of right now I'm trying to launch several applications such as games and what not on the PC, but nothing is actually being launched, I double click and then see no reaction at all. I tried other methods of launching apps such as run as administrator or going through the Microsoft store / Xbox app and trying to launch games that I had just installed to try them out or see if the problem belonged to only one application or set of programs. But all to no avail as I have received unhelpful notifications saying the launch had failed.

 

The PC is fresh with a clean SSD that had nothing but windows 10 pro and Armoury crate (ASUS) programs/drivers installed, so I'm not too sure if I messed something up or did not set something up properly.

I'm guessing it's the latter since everything else works fine, PC detected all parts and the live feed of usage and what not is all there.

 

 

 

Sorry for the long read, any advice would be appreciated!

Time to maybe look at task manager?  See if the amps you launch are actually getting run.

Microsoft Drivers, no, you don't have your drivers installed. Go to MB website and download all your real drivers, install those, should have NIC and Wi-Fi there.

To check go to Device Manager and see if you have any red marks or yellows.

Put Windows Update to "notify me but do not download", go through list of updates every time and hide hardware "updates".

Or blacks.  Blacks are deactivated.

What seemed to solve it for me was a windows update and some drivers, could be cade sensitive but just in case someone runs into the same problem
