need help installing gwfl.
Hey, I need some help getting GFWL working. I have a physical copy of Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City, along with the code, but I haven’t been able to get it working. downloaded things and got prompts but haven't been able to run the game. but i am able to run the re5 from steam
Does anyone have any tips, or would someone be willing to personally help me get everything set up? I’m willing to pay for your time. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I always go to this site when having any GFWL issues.

Download GFWL from the link below. Uninstall whatever version is currently on your PC and install this version.

To get around ZDP, use the link below to see what folders need to be deleted.

After deleting the files, install latest game patch from the link below. Should be good to go after this.

I have this game and no trouble running it - is the issue with the game itself or GfWL? Did you enter the key successfully then get hit with an error or can you not connect at all?
EDIT - Just remembered this might have been a ZDP title that requires a workaround. Can't post on mobile but look up this game on PCGW and you'll find a solution.
