A specific .exe file will not start
Hello!
I'll start by mentioning i had some run32dll virus(noticed CPU lagging) so I deleted every run32dll.exe except the one in windows\system 32 (that one i understood was the good one).
After I did this, age2_x1.exe would not start, double click does nothing (that's age of empires 2). Strange thing is: if I rename it LITERALLY anything else ("x.exe", "age2_x1111.exe" whatever), it works.
Now the mind blowing part comes: Voobly (aoe multiplayer platform...something) wants the .exe file to be name exactly age2_x1.exe, or it will create one with that name and try to open it, with no succes. If I rename the one voobly created it starts, but then it'll just created another one with that name and so on.
Any other executable file works fine. Tried cleaning registry, reinstalling game. I really don't want to reinstall windows.
Help, thanks!
