cant play pirates of black cove ( Failed to initialize the engine ) and ( Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library ) Runtime Error ! C:\Program Files x86\Steam\steamap... R6025 -Pure virtual function call How do i fix this ? . Is it cos i am using windows 11 ?

wont run on Windows 11 so dont bother unless you are running old tech
