Elders Scrolls 3 Morrowind crashed when I try to start it

so i got it to let me open the windows app folder and it shows the morrowind folder in there i tried double clicking it and nothing when i right clicked it, it crashed windows explorer and now when I got back to it it shows the icon for the morrowind folder as white page instead of a folder i think maybe because i got the game from game pass it doesnt want to give me access to it maybe they are afraid people will steal it because its a monthly service that you have to pay for

To get folder permission>

Right-click on the folder and go to properties>security tab>click advanced

In the owner at the top click ''change'' in the blank field type ''everyone'' and then click ''verify names'' a new window will open and select ''everyone'' again and click '' Ok'', click ''ok'' again.

Check the box ''replace owner on subcontainers and objects''

And check the box at the bottom ''replace all permission entries...''

Click on apply, probably a window will open applying some changes, just click on ''yes'' or ''ok''. Click Ok to close the main window and enter the folder, try to delete everything inside the folder, and then delete the WindowsApps folder.

The file ''morrowind.ini'' you will find in the folder ''Morrowind GOTY English'' I also recommend you to click with the right mouse button on the executable of the game ''Morrowind'' and put it to run in administrator mode and in compatibility mode.

The developer recommends these steps to avoid crashes

1. Backup your existing copy to another folder such as My Documents.

2. Double click the file to open in Notepad.

3. Change Max FPS=240 to your monitor refresh rate when running the game. 60 is a good setting if you are not sure. I have found the best way to find this is to load a game in Morrowind, then press whatever option buttons are available on the front of your monitor. There will usually be a number listed in kHz and Hz. The number in Hz is the one you want.

4. Change DontThreadLoad=0 to DontThreadLoad=1

5. Change Interior Cell Buffer and Exterior Cell Buffer. Experiment with values of 32 (such 8 and 16, 32 and 64, 64 and 128, etc.) keeping the lower number in the Interior Cell Buffer.

Higher values use more RAM and allow more cells to load into memory. I find it best to base this number off your RAM, but not the FULL amount. Put half the amount of RAM into the Exterior cell, and another half of that into Interior cell. For instance, if you have 512 MB of RAM, put 256 in Exterior and 128 in Interior.

The files have this protection but before sending these steps to you I installed the game and checked if it was possible to access and open the files I mentioned. TThe files have this protection but before sending these steps to you I installed the game and checked if it was possible to access and open the files I mentioned. Try doing the same thing in the game folder to gain access. Or if the problem persists, try reinstalling the game

How are you?

In the game launcher did you try to reset files into data files?

If you follow this path you can find the game folder and delete the ''launcher_settings'' file.
