I attempted to redownload the game, download the 9th update, run as admin play on steam again and nothing has attempted to work. I'm sending a copy to see if there's an error you see on your end

It's not allowed Please advice on what to do next

[ThePotatoGuy]

The version line at the end of your log says that you're still running 0814, which means the install did not happen correctly. Follow these steps

[Private-Project-001]

Alright So I have followed the requests and still she will not appear. This time however it's a new copy of DDLC and no traceback has appeared Trying on the non steam DDLC repeats the same problem, with no changes to the update number

[jmwall24]

to get her back you need to load a backup persistent. this shows you where they are and this tells you how to restore one.

[Private-Project-001]

Reset to a week prior, Adjusted all persistant files after initial try didn't work, This has failed and now game will no longer open.

[Private-Project-001]

Swapped Monika file from usb into Steam version DDLC MAS and monika does not appear

[ThePotatoGuy]

You need to use a persistent where you used a regular goodbye and did not take Monika out. If you don't have any of those, then you're out of luck.
