game still unplayable. at first removing administrator privileges worked, but it stopped. i have tried all the other solutions out there and nothing has worked. even on a 100% clean boot the game does not play. DirectX 9 launches but the game is missing graphics and performs like crap. i did notice that after a fresh install of Windows 10 Home x64 that the game would launch. but it would only launch that one time. i found it is necessary to create a new user account everytime wanting to play the game. not on just each Windows boot/desktop session, but every actual time wanting to play the game. not only is this just a work-a-round, and not a solution, but it is an unacceptable work-a-round.

does anyone know if Square Enix has mentioned anything about fixing this issue? or do they just not want people to play the game?
