Find the Needle: Error Opening the EA Game (Fix)
Short answer
I tried updating Steam as well. Still isn't working, unfortunately.
The problem
I'm getting the following pop-up when I try to open the game: Find the Needle starts from Steam. Open Steam, sign in to the account that has the game, and press Play in your library. I've tried logging out and back in, re-installing, and verifying the game files too. Still getting the same error. Any solutions?

Yeah, just wanted to make it clear that I'm trying to run the Early Access full game, not the demo. I've already played through the entire demo without issue.

Fresh install twice, verified all game files, logged out and back in, restarted Steam…
Go into game options, Game files and click to verify all game files and see if that downloads some files again, that might help.
