Hello all, I get this game error with few games even with FSD. Means I got to reinstall these games I get the error with? Or is there a fix for it?

The game couldn't start. Try downloading the game again.

Like I said only happens with few games and also FSD, but I can start MW2 fine.
Also I think the reason it happened because I downgraded to dash 747 just to see if I could get dash launch to work, but even when I did downgrade it still freezes

Thanks in advice

Well first of all i think it's my fault anyway, because I have downgraded from 756 to 747 dash version to see if dashlaunch would work (not freeze), but it still did, so I updated to latest version of dash again.

So anyway don't know why, when I try to run FSD or like GH3 by going to xex menu and clicking on default.xex it gives me this Game Error: Game couldn't start. Try downloading game again.

Have you tried re-installing the ones giving you error if not then try and re-install them and see if it works.

Hey, sorry for late reply, but I fixed it, I only reinstalled FreeStyle Dash, then I put each original game (that didn't work) discs, then just copied default.xex from retail disc onto my saved game dir, set the paths again in FreeStyle Dash and now it works, thanks a lot for your help.

P.S. Yeah it seemed like the problem was with default.xex only as I did manage to start default_mp.xex no problem.
