For some reason, despite being able to run the old GOG version of Warrior Within on this computer, I'm unable to play it with the one downloaded thru GOG Galaxy. the message can be seen in the attachment.

Other than straight up replacing the exe file with a different file on the web, what can I do to fix this?

The problem is probably due to permissions' issues. Either try installing the game into a different path or setting the game executable (PrinceOfPersia.exe not POP2.exe) to always run as administrator.

Looks like setting PrinceOfPersia.exe to always run as admin worked. Thanks for that.

Kinda weird that I had to do that considering I already installed the game outside of the Program Files folder to begin with, but whatever.
