Make sure you have no online games running

Also, check that your anti virus is not 'protecting' you from using cheat engine

Same problem here... I turned off anti-virus and no online games running before installing CE 6.3. It won't open.

what os?
are other software running in background except antivirus?
how are you starting ce?
do you have admin rights?
have you checked in "taskmanager" if ce starts and closes immediately?

OS is Window 8.1 I just click on CE icon to open it, yet it won't open, ever if I run as admin

there is few software running in background, Steam and some sort of softwares from Dell and Intel. I doubt they are the cause of problem.

im using 8.1 x64 and no problem here,
it must be some application that is interfeering or your dll's are not responding as they should (c++ runtimes etc.?)

have you tried starting "cheatengine-i386.exe" or "cheatengine-x86_64.exe" directly from the installation folder?
is it even prompting for admin rights ? (dimming screen) maybe your desktop shortcut is corrupt

are there any sort of prompting / windows that shows up when you start CE and it wont load... ?
what about the taskmanager as i asked? is ce listed? (maybe just for blink of an eye)

have you tried installing on different folder that dont need admin rights? (user folder)
have you tried installing as admin? (right click)

This was my problem and I saw other people having the same one, then solving it works for everyone; uninstall Badlion client (its weird but it works) I uninstalled it from control panel. (if u had badlion installed and cheat engine wasn't running this is your fix!)
