Has it worked previously on your computer? If so, can you try restarting the computer?

yes i played yesterday without problems, no a restart didnt helped.

It looks like you have the latest windows 10 update - have you checked to see if there's a newer version of your graphics drivers? In the past we've had issues with that and updating drivers on AMD graphics cards has fixed it.

If not, you can try adding the command line parameter --force-opengl

yes its working now idk why
