HITMAN - Failed to start game (missing executable)
MadVillain Feb 17, 2017
I bought HITMAN "full experience upgrade pack" yesterday and downloaded the game, but I can't start it. It shows a message: "Failed to start game (missing executable)"
Also i noticed that if i uncheck flags for all DLCs or check only "Intro pack" game has zero volume to download.
I already tried changing download region and clearing download cache but it didn't help.
Could anyone please help me with this issue?

Did you try "verify integrity of game file" under properties -> Local files ?

I've tried it, it didn't work either.

You bought the "upgrade" pack? But you didn't have the original game? Is that even possible?

I have the original game and I've played it on Windows before.
