In the interim, you can try running a couple of basic checks of your Windows system files:
- Click Windows key-X and select "Powershell (Administrator)" or "Windows Terminal (Administrator)" , whichever you see

- Post the message you receive
Restart your computer, open Windows Settings > Update & Security, click the box to check for updates, and if any install, restart again afterwards. Then see whether you can play.
The usb is 128 GB
