Why Won't Some Apps Launch on My New Lenovo Laptop?

I'm having trouble with launching certain applications on my new Lenovo Loq 15IAX9. Even after ensuring that I have all the necessary Windows updates and drivers installed, along with .NET, DirectX, Java, and Visual C++, I'm facing issues. The Lenovo site indicates there are no additional drivers required. It's strange because other games like Expedition 33 run perfectly fine. I tried launching MultiMC and Duckstation, but when I double-click to run them, the loading bar appears for a few seconds and then just stops. They don't show up in the task manager at all, and even trying to run them as administrator doesn't prompt any pop-up. Any ideas on what's going on?

If you've already tried checking for file blockage, ensure that the applications are indeed compatible with your system. Sometimes, older software may run into compatibility issues with newer hardware.

Have you checked if Windows is blocking the executable files? Sometimes, security settings can prevent apps from launching properly.

Make sure your antivirus isn't blocking these specific applications. It can sometimes misidentify them as potential threats.
