Hi,

You can't launch rfactor 2 from the core folder. You need to launch rfactor 2 using the "Launch rFactor.exe" which you will find in your rfactor 2 folder. If you still get an error running the game from the launcher I would suggest uninstalling rfactor 2 and then re installing it.

Hope this helps.

Reinstall should not be needed.
Start the launcher via the install folder ( install, not core) That should work. Make a shortcut on your desktop for it.
You also need to access the mod manager. Same story, do NOT do that via the core folder. Start it from the launcher.

Use the launcher. It's there for a reason
