after buying and installing AOE 2 DE via the windows store, it does not start…
When I click on the AOE 2 DE icon I get the image that appears in the middle of the screen and it disappears without launching the game. So I stay on the windows desktop.
I also have that problem. It had worked well for a few month. The only thing I installed in the meanwhile was VLC player. Even after unsinstalling VLC and AoE de and reinstalling AoE it does not work. No idea what updates Windows had in the background. I’m now on Win10 2004 (19041.804).
