Hello,

I haven't played the game for more or less 2 years. But I installed it today and it doesn't work, I've unistalled and installed again but nothing changed…

It appears the message: "Launching the game failed."

Does anyone knows how to make it work?

Most likely out of date mods. Please try this:

- uninstall PA from Steam
- unsubscribe from ALL mods in the Steam workshop

Delete the following folders if still present:
- Steam/SteamApps/common/PA
- C:/users/<UserName>/AppData/Local/Introversion/Prison Architect/

- run steam.exe as the Windows Admin user

Now install PA again and see how that goes please! If it works, as I expect, you can then subscribe to mods again - but only ones that have been updated to work with the latest game patch.

Good luck!
