FAQ: Game just won't start after Installation.

When you start it first time, you might need to run it as an admin (right click the TBCB shortcut and click on "Run as admin..."). Should only be needed once.

If nothing happens when you start the programm after the installation, it's surely NO graphic error like missing DirectX or something. There should at least come an error message or the purchase screen. If not, this might help you:

First check whether you're having an internet connection. Open your browser, and open any website. Works? Great. Now close all programs which might use the internet: streaming audio/video, email client, browser, online games and so on.
Does TB start now? Yes? Fine, that's it. If not, probably the eLicense control is disabled on your PC.

Do the following to enable it again:

- Open the Windows Start menu, and click on Run
- Type msconfig and press the Enter key
- Once that pops up, click on the Services tab
- Scroll down and find the Service tab licctrl
- Make sure there is a check mark by that box!
- Click apply, and restart your computer
