Issues fixed

Temporary switch to desktop or black screen when loading

Invisible War temporarily shows the desktop or a black screen prior to the loading screen. The game still works despite this.
This workaround is not available on Windows 8 and later.
Instructions

Game only shows black screen

If Google Chrome or Logitech SetPoint is running in the background, the game will not load and only show a black screen after loading a game. To fix it you need to manually kill the process using the Task Manager.

Crash when installed in a Windows 8 Storage Space

The Game will refuse to run when installed on a drive which is managed by a Windows 8/8.1 Storage Space.

Notes

  1. 1.0 1.1 File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data (use Wine regedit to access Windows registry paths). Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/6920/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (6920) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
