Windows 8.1 Errors installing game 24 Apr 2015 05:54 #44236

Upgraded to windows 8.1 from windows 7. I get errors when the citycardriving installer trys to install directx and no online fix has worked, and yes..I do run programs as a admin. Already sent support a email, and they just sent back the exact same things I read off the website so was useless. Need help for fix.

Hello,

Please, try these steps:

1. Turn of the UAC - windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/turn-user-account-control-on-off#1TC=windows-7

2. Temporary turn off any antivirus or firewall software.

After that run the game as administrator (right click on its' shortcut and choose "Run as administrator" in the context menu) and enter your activation key again.

I have one users account which is forced admin by default of any os. I'm not new to using simple computer options. Running in admin does nothing Directx fail no matter what. Windows 8.1 64bit fully updated. Directx 11.2 already installed. The game itself to me seems to have compatibility problems with windows 8 in general.
