So what does the Dependency program tell you? If there is an issue with missing DLLs, it should be telling you which are returning with errors.

The guide above shows how to use the program. Run the "DependenciesGui.exe" file you downloaded. If it's opening in notepad, you're opening the wrong file.

And did you install the required Visual C++ redistributable mentioned on the download page for the Dependencies program?

Assuming your system is 64-bit, which it should be if you want to run Kenshi anyway, this is the one you'll want.

I don't want your money, and I will not access your computer to attempt to fix it for you (nor should you be offering it).

I would try downloading dependencies via the second link, as sometimes your AV can kill part of the download, depending on what you have.

If that doesn't work, you should run a dxdiag (explained here if needed), then attach the file to a post here.

Right click the file it created, then select Send To->Compressed (zipped) folder

Then attach the zip file here.

Can you try running Kenshi from its exe file directly? Does it give an error when you do so, or just nothing happens?

And can you attach the kenshi.log and kenshi_info.log files after you try launching the game?
