Hello,
yesterday I installed Windows 11 and today I wanted to open Houdini Indie via Steam but it crashes instantly. Not even a splash screen is showing. I had no old files on disk (and no 19.5 folder / database in the documents folder) and did a fresh Houdini install via Steam. Everything worked with Windows 10 and other Steam Apps work.

I click on "Launch", it shows "Synchronizing Cloud" then "Launching Executable" then it just stops and the "Launch"-Button is green again.

Does anyone have the same issue? How can I get more informations with the steam version? Or a log with informations where the process stops.

Thanks

edit:

I now installed Houdini Apprentice with an installer from the SideFX website and it worked fine. After that my Indie Steam version worked as well. Maybe there were some files missing or so. So in case you have the same issue, installing the official apprentice fixed the steam version for me.
