What Causes the MSI Gaming App to Fail to Open?
Here is a list of possible causes for the MSI Gaming App which is refusing to launch properly:
Solution 1: Install the Latest Version of the App
After the problematic Windows 10 update was released, there were plenty of new versions of the tool available. Since the tool has malfunctioned and it won’t even launch properly, the best thing you can do is to actually install the latest version manually by uninstalling it from your computer and installing the latest version from the site!
Solution 2: Run the Game as an Administrator
Some users have noticed that the app actually works whenever they logged in using their administrator account. This leads us to believe that the actual problem regarding the tool is the lack of proper permissions. It’s not always the best idea to run random programs as an administrator, but MSI is a verified published and various users have reported that running MSI Gaming App as an administrator actually resolved the problem for them!
Solution 3: Reinstall Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable
Since we can often blame Windows update for this problem, it’s quite possible that the version of Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable installed alongside the game is simply not valid and you may want to actually install it manually after uninstalling the MSI Gaming App. Perform the steps in Solution 1 in order to uninstall it and follow the instructions below!
Solution 4: Install the Required Driver
This final method is super useful for people who encounter the “Please install or update _____ driver” message after trying to launch the app. Simply locate the device in Device Manager and update the driver!
