Hi everyone. This is my first tutorial so you'll have to bear with. I recently managed to get LEGO Creator: Harry Potter fully running on my Windows 10 laptop. I've recorded what I did and I have attached the video below. I have also provided screenshots to help with those who can't get through my confusing video I recorded. Hope this helps those who couldn't get it running. You will need a Microsoft Agent simulation device. I used Double Agent, a freeware that works well. I've linked it here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/doubleagent/.  It'll update as and when.

 

1. Install LEGO Creator: Harry Potter using these compatibility settings:

2. Download and install Double Agent:

You need to ensure that the bottom 2 have installed. If the 64 bit exe didn't work try the 86 bit exe.

 

3. Finally change your compatibility settings to match this on your desktop shortcut for the game:

I also used dgvoodoo to make it 1920x1080 but didn't make any config changes. You should find it all works.

 

A video will be coming soon.

I remember having a similar problem as this when I first installed. Run your lchp setup in XP compatibility. Uninstall Double Agent then run that in normal compatibility. Make sure that everything on that options screen is installed.

Hi!

 

I have a question.

 

I have double agent installed, LC Harry Potter launches, however the game stays constantly on a black screen that says "Lego Creator Harry Potter" and doesn't go further. Any advice how to fix that?

I'm sorry but I can't even install the game
I get the error "the program requires that you have only 60 mb of memory on your computer, setup will now abort"
