pndzl · Dec 17, 2022

Hi,

I am having a trouble with playing Sniper Elite 5. I have downloaded this game from Xbox pc game pass and when I try to run it, an error appears:
Can't find file "game directory\bin\sniper_dx12.exe". I've reinstalled the game, and still this file is missing same as sniper5_vulcan.exe. Any tips?

:)
