Hello,
Try to uninstall your game, delete the Forward Development folder in your documebts library (make a backup first), clean your registry, and perform a clean reinstallation of your game. It will ask a key after you install it again, but only for the first run. When you activate it, problem should be gone.

Hello,

Please, try these steps:

1. Make sure your Windows account has an "Administrator" status.

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

3. 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.

So after several tries of trying to open the game as administrator and not as administrator, the game finally decides to let me play the game after entering the key for the 17 billionth time.
The developers should probably look into fixing this issue if they haven't already, since it is severely annoying. And it just breaks the game.
Plus, people who live in the Americas/Europe can experience downloads for over an hour, especially those who have the standard internet connection (like, 15mbps download/1-2mbps upload).

I know this may not be such a serious issue, since it is fixable, but seriously though, it is annoying.
Halt, Tropfen und explodieren.



p.s. i like topgear and stuffs yey

in 99% of cases this issue can be resolved by running as "administrator" through the context menu (your current accout should have administrator status too). If not it's connected with some personal system tweaks or antivirus software.

That's why we have several download mirrors. When main download links are slow for somebody, then Google or MediaFire usually works perfectly for all.
