Dark Souls takes place in the fictional kingdom of Lordran, where players assume the role of a cursed undead character who begins a pilgrimage to discover the fate of their kind. Thanks to all who attempted to help me fix this. Dark Souls is a 2011 action role-playing game developed by FromSoftware and published by Namco Bandai Games.A spiritual successor to FromSoftwares Demons Souls, the game is the second instalment in the Souls series. The issue was a small file related to DSFix still being in the game directory.

I have tried a few new techniques, including uninstalling GFWL, Windows Essentials, and Internet Explorer, reinstalling them, and the restarting my computer. I reinstalled the game because I thought a file was missing, but that did not work. My earlier method I used to fix this (installing an older GFWL client) did not seem to work. Recently, the game (when it actually somewhat worked) began to crash on startup. How can I fix this? I'm desperatly trying to move my save data over to steam, and with this problem, I can't do that.ĮDIT: A little update on what I've done and a bit more info on the issue. I've tried everything at this point, validating my game cache, reinstalling several different GFWL versions, and even reinstalling the game itself. I checked task manager and the EXE was running. Every time I launch Dark Souls, it simply states that the game is starting up, and nothing happens. After I install said program, I try again to open Dark Souls. Downdetector only reports an incident when the number of problem reports is significantly higher. It is common for some problems to be reported throughout the day. I found this page and download Visual C++ Redistributable (x86) for visual studio 2012. This chart shows a view of problem reports submitted in the past 24 hours compared to the typical volume of reports by time of day. Program cant start because MSVCP110.dll is missing. I've been having trouble with my game after I recently uninstalled DSFix to switch my game to steam servers. But then theres an error message that I have never received before when I try to open the game.
