Morning everyone, we've had users share some success after having changed their compatibility settings. Could you try the following and please let us know how you get on either way?

Locate your Steam.exe app, by default you can find it here: 

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam

If you can't see it, please make sure 'Show Hidden Items' is checked on the top 'Show/Hide' panel. 

Right click the Steam.exe app, select 'Properties' and then 'Compatibility'.

Uncheck any boxes that are ticked, select 'Apply' and then 'Okay'.

Now launch Steam via the .exe file (double click it), and attempt to launch FM24.

This has allowed me to launch FM24 via Steam which I was previously unable to do.

@HurriKANE and @studeacon89
I'm really glad a couple of you have had results! Enjoy!

Got excited for a sec that this would work, but i only have inbound rules for FM24 and no outbound rules. Applying the above was unsuccessful for the inbound rules.

Apologies, I meant inbound rules! Edited earlier post to reflect.

Enjoy playing. I'm jealous.

Thanks, hoping SI can get to the bottom of this one soon for all who are having these issues. It's seem like an odd environmental problem! 

I've been playing every beta since they've been a thing and this is first time I've ever ran into problems so I cannot complain.

I managed to get mine running without re-install of windows, but I cannot 100% say/confirm steps to resolve. 

In between the last time I was not able to launch it and the first time I launched it successfully I:

-disabled the inbound firewall rule for fm24.exe in windows firewall. Then tried to launch it via Steam and also direct via the fm24.exe (via right click + run as admin) which didn't work. 

-after that I re-enabled the inbound firewall rule for fm24.exe and then tried again to launch via Steam which again didn't work. 

However, when I then tried to run again direct from the fm24.exe with right click + run as admin, the game booted for the first time!

I'm still unable to start the game via Steam or via a desktop shortcut, if I do I see the same symptoms as before. However the game does now boot every time from the fm24.exe and right click + run as admin.

Unsure if this works for anyone else or helps, but wanted to share none the less just in case.
