Delta Force Error Code 193/126: How to fix
Download File Manually
Since the error itself says that the tdatamaster.dll is missing or corrupted, maybe getting access to a new file will fix this issue. To try this out, head over here and download the .dll file. Once done, access the game’s installation directory and paste the .dll file. After this is done, launch the game to check whether the issue persists.
Install Microsoft Visual C++
Although this should already be installed on your PC, there is a chance that the files have gone corrupted. So, try installing the Visual C++ files again. To do so, click here and download both the x64 and x86 versions. Once downloaded, install them both, and then launch the game.
Run and Install “UE4PrereqSetup_x64”
For this workaround, you will need to head over to the given path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Delta Force\Engine\Extras\Redist\en-us and then run the UE4PrereqSetup_x64 file using admin privileges. Install the program and then try launching the game to check whether the issue persists.
Reinstall Windows
While this may seem like a stretch, some players did mention that reinstalling Windows on their PC is what helped them get rid of this issue. So, we recommend doing the same. If you have an older version of Windows, maybe like Windows 10, consider upgrading it to Windows 11, and then check whether the issue persists.
Reinstall Game
If none of the workarounds have been of any help, then all there’s left to try is a clean reinstallation of the game. Also, while you are at it, try installing it on a different drive than the previous one to confirm whether the installation location has any role to play in this error’s occurrence.
For now, these are the workarounds worth trying to fix the error code 193 or 126 in Delta Force. We hope that you found this guide informative. If you want access to more such interesting content, consider visiting Android Gram daily.
