I have not tried to reset the settings, but that is because I have not changed any of the settings..... Do you still require me to reset it? I was able to originally able to play.... But, out of no where it did this... So I do not want to reset it in the happenstance that it may delete my game.... Sorry.... I'm lame.... I have followed everything else though.....

go to documents and rename Amnesia folder to Amnesia_OLD. Try to run the game and create a profile. Then move the save files from the Amnesia_OLD to the new Amnesia folder.

Do you want me to tell you exactly what it says under Exception Reason, and Stack Trace?
Also.... I just created a new game.... Just to see what would happen.... It worked..... So maybe the game save just became corrupted?

Checked above links, saw nothing that helped.
My graphics card is up to date, OpenGL as well.
I can only get to the Launcher, however. I've tried opening the .exe file or launching start from Steam.
BUT, it worked BEFORE I downloaded any Custom Stories.
Could these be interfering somehow?
The CS's are:
Wake
PewDiePie's House V2
Nintendo Horror Castle (Which came in a redist file. I have no clue what this is so I removed it after extracting into custom_story folder. After that it stopped working all together)
I also never got any of the CS's to work, though I followed Cry's (Cry being ChaoticMonki on YouTube.) walkthrough on it. I don't believe I did anything incorrectly.
Help would be great, I enjoyed PewDie and Cry's playthroughs and would like to try it myself.
