Kalipso discovered a problem with the Launcher in late 2014. Here's a link to a quick hotfix to restore Launcher functionality if you're affected by the startup issue:http://download.kalypsomedia.com/KalypsoTropico5Hotfix.exeIf you have done a full re-install, always make sure this hotfix is applied first, the Launcher will then start and prompt for any other game updates and patches that may be available.http://forum.kalypsomedia.com/showthread.php?tid=26031

Sorry you've had a bad experience,, Rebeca. If you're sure that the application won't start and the problem is the USB cable, then I'm thinking you'll have to contact the company. Hopefully, you're still under warranty.

Restart your computer and repeatedly press F8 while you turn it on. This should bring you to some menu. Press system restore restore back to the date it worked. I had the same problem and this advice worked for me.

The package comes with an installation disk. This is simple and just follow the steps as the installation told you. It won't work if you didn't install the application from the disk.

I haven't upgraded to windows 8.1 yet, so I'm not sure how to solve that issue. Sorry.

The start button works perfectly on my machine, haven't used many of the processing buttons, but try the reset button, and see if that works. Possibly this is a damaged product.

Try to do it on a windows 7 or any other lower version. Because doesn't run properly on windows 8. Also find the right version of bytes on the installation folder.

It works with Windows 8.1 but you need to manually install some runtime components in order to get them to work. They have to be run manually.

Yes, I had windows 8 and it worked fine. Then I upgraded to windows 8.1 and it still works the same, no problems.
