Please try browsing to the SporeApp.exe file and launching the game from there, it is located within the c:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Spore\Sporebin folder for regular core Spore and at C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\SPORE_EP1\SporebinEP1\SporeApp.exe for Spore Galactic Adventures. If that works you can try creating a new desktop icon pointing to the location for your Spore core or Spore GA SporeApp.exe file. --> Read post Spore MasterK https://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/list/37010.page "
