Problem

If you have the problem, that the game did not start properly, this little guide might help you.

In my case the game didn't pop up. Only the game icon was visible in the Taskbar. The problem is that the game can't handle the high display resolution. You have two options to handle with this problem.

Solution 1: Change Display Resolution

You could reduce your display resolution in your Windows settings to a lower value and the game will start properly! I can't tell which resolutions will work, but in my case 1280x1024 or 1024x768 works fine. Some other resolutions also works but the picture might be streched. Try out which resolution works the best for you.

Solution 2: Windowed Mode

Another way to solve the problem is to force the game to start in Windowed Mode.

1. Go in this folder in the game directory:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Disney Fairies Tinker Bell's Adventure\data\gfx

2. Open the file FairiesPC.cfg in a text-editor.

3. Change Full Screen=Yes to Full Screen=No.

Now the game starts in a fixed sized window.

Solution 3. VSync

Maybe changing the VSync Setting could help if you have problems:

1. Go in this folder in the game directory:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Disney Fairies Tinker Bell's Adventure\data\gfx

2. Open the file FairiesPC.cfg in a text-editor.

3. Change VSync=No to VSync=Yes.

Now the game starts with activated VSync.

Hello
I have installed the game but it does not work my system is Windows 11 Home in France how can I play the games?

I added a possible solution regarding "VSync". You could try this. Maybe this will help.
By the way: On my Windows 11 system everthing works fine, without any changes.
