@NicePanxiety Doesn't offer any solution. All my graphics drivers are updated, and this is the only game I get this error message

Update: still not working. If I wasn't the only person on here having this issue, then maybe there would be a fix by now

@SadPackersFan
Did you read everything on the website I mentioned? Bcz its say its a drive problem, and probably the post has stoped bcz the problem its solved, so......

@NicePanxiety All of my drivers are updated like I said before. If that was the problem, I wouldn't be able to play my other games which I'm able to do.

Hello

I got the same error message and i managed to fix it.

Right-click on plutonium.exe → Properties
Go to the Compatibility tab
Check: Run this program in compatibility mode for: Select Windows 8 from the list

it fixed it for me.

Hope it can help some people

The game doesn't launch for me whenever I try to set any compatibility, but when i uncheck "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" it launches without problem.
