Had a quick look on the net and someone actually suggested running the command line in admin mode and typing sfc /scannow

To be honest it does not cost anything apart from time so give it a go. I have seen some wild #%&*$# going sideways and this fixed the issue (after at its Microsoft so everything is possible). Let me know if that actually did anything. Those solutions sometimes work for like 1000s of people or they dont work at all biggrin

Switching to GOG version probably will be easiest solution.
