When i try opening the game. The Hammer logo flashes up then creates a ''Hammer Access Violation" I really need to get rid of it. There is no way i am going to quit mapping because of an error.

Yes I have. Reinstalled the game and done everything there possibly could. This can’t be the end of my TF2 Mapping Fun Can it?

Have you tried running Hammer as an administrator? Also, can you post the GameConfig.txt in your hammer.exe folder?

Yes I have ran it as administrator. I can’t give the GameConfig.txt because I’m on mobile.
