I installed Sore on our 3yo Toshiba laptop running Win10, with all updates. It ran immediately after installing but hasn't worked since.
I then installed it on another Toshiba Win10 laptop (new), with all updates and again it ran immediately after installing but hasn't worked since.
"Spore has stopped working" before UI launches.

Hi @ir-ghosts
Launch the game in windowed mode, use it to compatibility mode.
- Right click on the Spore icon and exe
- Properties
- Choose compatibility tab
- Choose a Windows Version
- And set a flag in “Run this program as an administrator”
- Say okay

Read this post, it can also be a problem of your processor.https://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/list/79539.page

G'day
I'm having a similar issue with Spore (I'm trying to get it to work for my daughter to play.) I'm using a new laptop with windows 10 and while the game installs fine (only have base game and galactic adventures) no desktop icon comes up and the game isn't located in the games folder for me to make a copy of said icon onto the desktop. I don't have the option to downgrade the OS however I can't change compatibility modes for the game unless i find the icon. After several installs, it still won't create one. I am aware my copy is about 7 years old and doesn't let me redeem it's code on the EA store anymore (I've been trying in hopes I can get a desktop icon that way) but i've heard people have had this issue with downloaded copies that are more recent as well and was wondering if it had something to do with windows 10 itself.
I would love some help as my daughter really wants to play this game.
thank you, meika
Look in this post, there is a detailed guide how to create a desktop icon from GA.

where can I find spore icon and exe? I have looked at everything on my laptop and tried all but none seem to work.
@Koendog Hi,
They's located under C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\SPORE
via Origin
C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Spore\SporeBin\SporeApp.exe

- @Freggi-Liz There is no compatibility tab showing up. Could you give me more than the copy-pasted repsonse?
