His response was:
"no idea. Old trainers with old trainer template. May be that they completely changed the windows apis, which breaks the code in the old trainers"
So it looks to me this is not fixable, but kinda makes no sense because I have very old system setup with win7😳.
I downloaded this trainer:
XCOM 2: War of the Chosen - Trainer 8917 (PATCH 12.30.2018 TACTICAL LEGACY)
turned off ALL anti virus, anti malware, all app and browser control, made sure windows defender all settings were off, then ran the trainer
runs perfectly fine.
Windows 10 Pro Version 20H2
OS build 19042/285
I have no suggestions nor can I fix anything as it works 100% here.
best,
Cal
Tnx for reply, since the offline way still works there would be no reason to rewrite the whole thing for an old game, way too much work. I appreciate your help.
So far only seems to affect people with Windows 7, something to do with that and the official death of internet explorer. What it is exactly I have no idea.
Probably it is also ME for being stubborn for still using win7 and not switching to win10, but I'm old school =" if it ain't broken don't fix it".😜
trainer worked few days ago. today wont run. asking to choose app to run tmp file.
windows 10 21H1 19043.1055

Run the trainer as admin. otherwise,
Please delete the trainer, custom keys, debug folder where the trainer resides and all files in
C:\Users\USERNAMEHERE\AppData\Local\Temp
C:\Users\USERNAMEHERE\Cheathappens\Work
C:\Users\USERNAMEHERE\AppData\Roaming\Cheat Happens\0x90
C:\ProgramData\CheatHappens
Learn how to make your own Trainer Cleaner for the above paths here.
Reboot PC to clear excess memory, get a fresh copy of latest trainer and extract it. Run trainer as admin, read the instructions and try again. At times, a new game may be needed to resolve failed options if the data in your save file was altered. Use on a new game and test the option. If it now works, quit to main menu and load your save and try it again. May also need to run the game without the trainer first and play a bit so the save file gets updated to use possible new values. This typically will resolve the issue.
This cleaner is also part of the new Cheat Happens Trainer Manager 2.0, it is found in the settings and has an easy to use one button click feature.
