    tioxedVTNC the user folder contains your stats which the game creates so nothing is missing, it's just your game refusing to start. Try closing steam and removing steam_api.dll from your game folder if present.

    ok, so I have to have steam to make the game work? It's because I uninstalled my steam lol 😄

    but I put the steam_api.dll in the system 32 folder. Is there a problem?

            tioxedVTNC no, the opposite. Steam can cause issues. Remove steam_api from your system32 folder and from your game folder.

                tioxedVTNC did you even read my previous reply? The user folder is created by the game and contains your stats, nothing else. If the game can't start up there won't be a users folder but the game will work without one present.

                Where is your game folder? Do you even have the game?

                    tioxedVTNC can you post a screenshot of what's inside the pluto_t6_full_game folder? If nothing is missing it should be as simple as:

                    • move the pluto_t6_full_game folder to C:\Games (having it in downloads can cause issues)
                    • open the pluto launcher and select C:\Games\pluto_t6_full_game as your bo2 game folder

                          this is what is inside the pluto_t6_full_game folder... you want to see what's inside each folder?

                              tioxedVTNC Tried waiting? Does it stay stuck at handling authentication request or does it say some other stuff after it? Do you have any DX hooking apps running in the background? Example - avermedia software/afterburner/rivatuner/etc. Also did you modify any other files inside system32? Did you dl any other dlls from random dll sites?

                              Astradsr Create your own topic. Its probably your AV https://plutonium.pw/docs/antivirus/

                                tioxedVTNC Just start plutonium.exe and play. No idea why you went in these files.
                                Looks like you didn't read the guide https://plutonium.pw/docs/install/
