6.4 campaign wont start

[HansLanda]

Hi everyone and thanks in advance for any help.

I have recently installed SS 6.4 on to my computer and while it opens fine it just goes back to the menu every time I try to start a campaign. I have looked through the threads on here and it seems it is quite common, firstly I followed the tips to disable UAC and it hasnt worked. People also suggested posting error logs so here is mine:-

did ya'll run the setup application as adminstrator?
(im talking after install, right clicked the setup.exe file (not the ss6.4.exe a different one after install in the ss6.3 folder) and clicked 'run as adminstrator').
