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^[1] 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 Storage Space

The game will refuse to run when installed on a drive which is managed by a Storage Space on Windows 8 and later.
