    So, has the game actually started at some point or does it always say that it's already running?
    What happens after you close that process and start again?

    Have you tried "verify steam cache" already? maybe some files are corrupt or missing after download...

    The problem of double running the game has gone away when you run
    RRRELauncherInstall.exe manually.
    However, the game starts as a hidden process and nothing helps.

    Game files are ok, verified 2-3 times, steam dont find any errors.
    In Windows Event-Viewer don't see nothing related to rre.exe

    There is no solution?

    I can play all my sims except RRRE: Race 07, Assetto, Automobilista, Forza 7 demo, even PC works well.
    However, RRRE is my favorite in driving and how well it goes without assists with the controller.

    I've tried everything I found on the web and nothing helped.

    Have you removed those Startup-Options already? They aren't needed anymore...
    Have you checked if there is the Folder "My Games/SimBin" in your "Documents"-Folder? If yes, delete it or move it to another folder as a Backup...

    So I cleared the options, I do not have the specified folder in the documents.
    I have only SimBin\Race 07 in documents, in my games there is no SimBin folder.

    so the game completely fails to start.
    Could you please check or install the prerequisites for the game manually?
    Those are:
    - Microsoft Net Framework 4
    - Microsoft Visual c++ Redistributable 2010
    - Microsoft Silverlight
    - Adobe Flash Player

    I would reinstall those, maybe it helps.

    In windows 10 this is the system component, when you run the installer it ends with a message that you do not need to install it manually.

    This computer is already running [dot]NET Framework 4.7 or a later version.

    yeah - was affraid that it already was up to date, but as it isn't a component that automatically updates to the latest version it was a suggestion...

    hm, as you are running Win in Admin-Account it shouldn't be needed. But have you tried to start Steam in Admin-Mode?

    As you've seen, the Folder My Games\Simbin is not existing. At least at the gamestart it should be created by the game.

    In the documents \ my games there is no SimBin folder.
    I tried running steam and playing in the Admin-Mode mode.
    The game runs but without any information or error, nothing shows up on the screen every time.
