===Nothing happens when you launch game (Steam on Windows only)===
 +
Symptom: you launch the game, Steam shows 'running' for a few seconds, but the game doesn't open. You can usually fix that by doing this:
 +
# If you've already installed SMAPI, blank the Steam launch options so it runs the game without SMAPI.
 +
# [[Modding:Player Guide/Getting Started#Find your game folder|Open your game folder]].
 +
# Open the <tt>_CommonRedist</tt> folder, then <tt>XNA</tt> inside that, then <tt>4.0</tt>.
 +
# Run the <tt>xnafx40_redist.msi</tt> file.
 +
# Restart your computer.
 +
# Launch the game.
 +
 +
If that works, you're done! (If you removed SMAPI in step one, you can reinstall it now.)
 +
 +
If it still doesn't work:
 +
# [[Modding:Player Guide/Getting Started|Install SMAPI]] (if you don't already have it).
 +
# Launch the game.
 +
# [[#Ask for help|Ask for help and attach your SMAPI log]].
