Hi, not sure if I’m alone in experiencing this, but after the latest VorpX update, I cannot start any steam game while SteamVR is running – Steam always reports “Failed to launch <Game>”. I have reinstalled VorpX, and tried variations of launching both Steam and VorpX as Administrator, but with no luck. I tried this on numerous titles but can confirm it happens on Alien: Isolation every time. I had no problems prior to automatic updating to 17.1.3. Anyone have any suggestions?
Hi foolio, thanks for getting back to me. Yes simply disabling my antivirus (ESET Smart Security 10, for anyone else out there with same issue) and now my games launch again. Cheers for the help.
EDIT: Forgot to mention, I also run Malwarebytes. I lazily disabled both this and ESET at same time so can’t specify which software was causing the problems (Probably ESET).
