+## Causes
+
+<aside>
+
+### Issue 1: Missing C++ Redistributable
+
+---
+
+*Eden requires the latest C++ redistributable from Microsoft in order to run.  Like many other programs, it relies on aspects and libraries included in this runtime, without it - the program cannot run.*
+
+1. Download the [Latest C++ Redistributable](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/windows/latest-supported-vc-redist?view=msvc-170#visual-studio-2015-2017-2019-and-2022) from Microsoft for your machine.
+2. Double Click the downloaded executable file and wait for the software to install.
+3. Restart the computer.
+4. Launch Eden again, if the main window appears, you are good to go.  If not, proceed to the next issue.

+

+
+### Issue 2: Corrupted System Files
+
+---
+
+*A corruption of necessary system files can cause odd behaviors when Eden tries to access them.  It is a very rare case and you would likely see other programs misbehaving if this is what your issue is, but you can try if you have no other options.*
+
+1. Launch Eden to generate a crash.
+2. Confirm there are no logs created in the log directory.
+    1. See the [How to Access Logs](./HowToAccessLogs.md) page for the log location if you need it.
+    2. If there are any entries in here since you tried step 1, this is likely not your issue.
+3. Navigate to your *Windows Event Viewer* (Start Menu → **eventvwr.msc)**. 
+4. Expand **Windows Logs** and select **Application.**
+    
+5. Look for an entry with the Level of Error, and look for a message similar to the following
+    
+    ```
+    Faulting application name: Eden.exe, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x6795dc3c
+    Faulting module name: ntdll.dll, version: 10.0.26100.3037, time stamp: 0x95e6c489
+    Exception code: 0xc0000005
+    Fault offset: 0x0000000000014778
+    Faulting process id: 0x2AF0
+    Faulting application start time: 0x1DB7C30D2972402
+    Faulting application path: C:\temp\Eden-Windows\Eden.exe
+    Faulting module path: C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\ntdll.dll
+    Report Id: 4c8a6e13-9637-438c-b4d0-e802d279af66
+    Faulting package full name: 
+    Faulting package-relative application ID:
+    ```
+    
+6. Run a Command Prompt terminal Window as Administrator.
+7. Enter the following command and wait for it to complete.  It will take a while, just be patient and do other things while it completes.
+    
+    ```
+    DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
+    ```
+    
+8. Reboot your computer.
+9. Launch Eden and verify it is now working.

+
+---
+
+### Pre-Requisites
+
+
+- The [*latest C++ Redistributable*](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/windows/latest-supported-vc-redist?view=msvc-170#latest-supported-redistributable-version) from Microsoft.
+    - Eden will not even launch without it see [*Eden Fails to Launch*](./EdenFailsToLaunch.md) for more information.
+- Firmware dumped from your console
+- Keys extracted from your console
+- Games dumped from your console
+- Internet Connection
+
+---
+
+## Steps
+
+1. Download either the *Stable* or *Nightly* Eden application.
+    <aside>
+    
+    ***TIP***:  If you have questions about the requirements, architectures, or general information surrounding what release you need - see the [*Basics Guide*](./Basics.md) and [*Architectures Guide*](./Architectures.md).
+    
+    </aside>
+2. Extract the contents to wherever you want to store the program on your computer. 
+    <aside>
+    
+    ***TIP***: If you want to run Eden completely portable (everything is stored in the folder you extracted it to) - create a folder called **user** if it is not there by default.
+    
+    </aside> 
+3. Run ***Eden.exe*** to launch the program.  
+    
+    <aside>
+
+    ***INFO***: You may get a “*Windows protected your PC”* SmartScreen message that appears.  This is just Windows Defender saying it did not recognize the application and did not run it - Eden is completely safe.  Click **More info** and then **Run anyway** to dismiss this message.
+    
+    </aside>
+4. Eden will now launch and notify you about missing Decryption keys. Close the dialog box by hitting **OK**.
+5. Navigate to **Tools → Install Decryption Keys**, navigate to the folder containing your key files and select the file, you should only be able to select one.
+6. Navigate to **Tools → Install Firmware**, *Select **From Folder*** or ***From ZIP*** - depending on how your firmware is stored, navigate to where it is stored and select it.    
+7. Double-Click the main window to add the folder containing your games.
+8. Go to *Emulation > Configure > Input* and set up your controller of choice. Click **OK** to close the dialog window.
+9. Double-Click a game to run it.
