Good day, I have made an account to tell of a simple fix for the "Fatal String Manager initilization" issue.
I've always thought, that it's about the programs permissions, so I tested, if deactivating the UAC, User Account Control, is doing anything.
What did it do? It worked. Simple fix, but comes in with less security.
I tested using admin rights, it simply never helped. Every .exe I found, I put a permission on, never did anything for me. I tried it with Yuri's Revenge, too, just to see,
as soon as I put the admin rights onto the .exe, it DID NOT work anymore!
I am on windows 7, just to add this. Logs never seemed to do anything bad or wrong, though of course I'm none of the devs.
Hope this will help anyone/someone
