Re: Game won't load past the starting screen.

@JanisSG - I don't think deleting files is necessary, the game is trying to start and is being blocked by something. If you delete all the game files, you'll lose your progress. I'm very surprised that you can't start the game after doing a clean boot. That should eliminate most of the variables. 

The log files lead me to believe you're playing the game from Steam. One simple thing that you could try is to completely exit both Origin and Steam. Make certain neither program is running. Log into Steam and launch Lost in Random. This should bring up the Origin window - log into Origin and then see if the game launches properly.

If that doesn't work, we might be able to help further if you're willing to try. Please reply with a copy of the InstallLog.txt file for LiR.

The default path is C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Lost In Random\__Installer\InstallLog.txt

At this rate i might just give up on it, had amazing experience but the hassle might not be worth it .
Thank you for all your help.

I understand very well, but I would like to ask you to at least try a clean boot following this guide.

Make sure your virus scanner and other security software and also Afterburner and similar software is disabled.

Make also sure you run Origin as Administrator. (Right click the Origin desktop shortcut > run as Administrator.)

If you want to try a clean reinstallation of the game we can provide you with a guide that keeps your progress.

@JanisSG - Where did you find the _Installer folder - \Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Lost In Random or \Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Lost In Random? Please check if there's an InstallLog.txt file in either of those places. If so, attach and let us know which spot it was. 

If there is none, please verify files in Steam, then repair game in Origin by right-clicking LiR > choose Repair. Also, ensure that you have enabled View Hidden Files and Folders  

If you start the game without the controller and press a keyboard key, does it start? 

@JanisSG 

Try to ALT + F4 out of the start screen and tell us what happens.

@JanisSG 

OK.

Run chkdsk on your game drive:

• Press the Windows key and "X" at the same time.
• Choose "command prompt (Administrator)" or "Power shell (Administrator)"
• At the prompt, copy and paste "chkdsk x: /f /r" (Without the quotes, change x to the drive letter of the drive Lost in Random is installed on.) > ENTER.
• Choose "Y" at the dialogue > Restart the machine.
• Here is a guide on how to find the Chkdsk log after you are back in Windows.

Ok, in this case you need to contact EA Support directly.

If you are not from the US change the country in the top right corner.

If you have trouble with the contact attempt look at this guide.
