How to Fix Runtime / Automation Error

Hello! This guide is for those who may be experiencing a runtime/automation error similar to the following:

Run-time error '-2147024770(8007007e)':

Automation error
The specific module could not be found.

​

This is a common issue and can be resolved quickly with a couple simple steps:

1. First, uninstall and re-download Life Forge.
2. Next, open File Explorer and go to Windows C > Program Files x86 > Steam > steamapps > common > Life Forge ORPG and click on the runtime application.
   
3. Install all of the Life Forge required files and immediately restart you computer.
4. After restarting, please make sure to not open Life Forge through Steam. Instead, once again go to Windows C > Program Files x86 > Steam > steamapps > common > Life Forge ORPG and double click the Life Forge application. This should allow you to open Life Forge correctly.
5. Finally, after opening and playing Life Forge successfully for the first time, restart you computer once again and Life Forge should now run properly from the Steam application.

I hope that this was helpful and fixed your error. Please comment below if this process did or did not work for you. Thanks!

Did you follow the steps outlined in this guide? There's no point in trying to troubleshoot further until you confirm that you followed the steps outlined above exactly.

 

If I have already done these steps several times but I think I have another problem since every time I did not have any effect the game was still the same so I ask for help

 

What OS are you running?

 

I have Windows 7 on my laptop ACER ASPIRE ONE.

 

If you are still having this issue message me on Discord, you can find me in the Life Forge Discord server, same name and picture.
