I downloaded TWoM from Steam on a new computer and I get the message "This War of Mine failed to run." I tried uninstalling game and re-downloading and get the same result. Any suggestions to fix it? I had no problems downloading and running the game from Steam on my other computer. Love the game, by the way. Thanks.

Hey, I found the answer to my problem running the program. TWoM is apparently not compatible with Windows 8.1. To fix this is easy: find the This War of Mine application (.exe file) stored in Steam/SteamApps/Common/This War of Mine folder on the computer and right click on the ThisWarofMine.exe file to pull up a menu. From the menu, select Troubleshoot Compatibility and Windows will fix the problem. TWoM runs fine now under Windows 8.1. Hope this helps anyone else who runs into this problem.
