WA ran for only one time

[alti0204]

Hello everybody,
I have a problem with CD worms armageddon.
I installed it in my pc, it ran properly for the first time, no errors.
And then the second time i run it, there basicly just... nothing happened, it didn't even run and ther was no error message.
I could see the wa.exe in processes (task manager) but not consumed cpu and ram, and there was a process drwtsn32.exe ran along with it (everytime i end wa.exe process, that end too).
This problem re-occured everttime i re-install the game: ran for the first time, second time there was nothing happened.
Please help, i don't want to install the game everytime i wanna play it.
thx first

Have you installed the latest update?

Have you installed the latest update?

yes, i update version 3.7.2.1

don't install inside program files

run as admin

I didn't put it in program files.
And the computer user i use is adminstrtor.
if you mean the "run as..." thing in right-click menu, i really don't understand how it work, the first choise is run as current user and the second is run as another user, and the 2nd one sucks, it requires password even that I didn't set any password.

If you use ResetRegistryOptions.reg, does it start again?

Upgrade your Windows. That might be necessary. Try Windows 7/8 (I don't trust 10's forced updates).

Thanks for your help, but i found a way to fix this.
Run the program in Win 2000 compatibility mode will fix this.
this can be locked.

Upgrade your Windows.

Upgrade your Windows.

This is good advice in general, but WA should still be able to function even on Windows 95, no?

[StepS]

Windows 95

3.6.26.5 and below.

I wasn't aware that W95 support had been dropped. So it won't run on it at all with the latest update?

Win10 is better, there is no problems with the free update

The drop of support was not intentional, and as far as I know, few things are win98-specific.

There is a problem with the free update, it ended yesterday.
