Hey, I hope you answer this cuz I usually doubt that comments in sites like these may don’t get answers…

Any help on that?
Also, I’ve actually already disabled antivirus after the buddha.dll file was detected by WinDefender and tried to restore it before I even run it and gets the error. Is that what causes it? Or something else?

Sir main game ka setup install kar raha hun tab entry point not found Aisa Problem aa raha hai
Follow this video step by step How to Download and Install Sleeping Dogs 1 Without error
There’s no setup file in the extracted version I download using the 5Gb parts link and there’s no setup.exe in there
Kindly watch the installation guide carefully and follow all the steps properly. Click Here to watch the guide
There’s no “Setup” app, even after multiple re-installations and both anti virus and windows defender disabled. I downloaded the 3GB parts by the way.
1005 working setup and No virus… we Check Games before uploading on website. Watch this video How to Download, Install and play Sleeping Dogs 1 Without Error. No Virus 100% safe!
I did everything correctly, Disabled anti virus and win protection, installed redistribution and now it’s saying application was unable to start correctly 0x0000142, when I check event viewer, it’s saying buddha.dll is the issue, I’ve re installed multiple times and i have made sure anti virus doesn’t delete buddha.dll but still nothing
Brother, please watch the video first. In the video it clearly shows the file “buddha.dll” along with two other files that the game needs. After the installation is complete, open the Skidrow folder, copy all the files, and paste them into the folder where you installed the game.
In the video, after the setup finishes, we copy the Skidrow folder files (which include buddha.dll) and paste them directly into the game folder.
is file contain virus
Nope.
I’ve done all of that, the file isn’t missing, it’s in the game folder, I did exactly what the video told me to do, i copied everything from Skidrow to the main game folder but I’ll try to install and extract a few more times, thanks for trying to help
Okay brother, thanks for letting me know. If the file is already in the game folder and you followed the video exactly, then try extracting and installing the game again. Sometimes files get corrupted during download or extraction. Make sure antivirus or Windows Defender is turned off during extraction and installation. Let me know if it works after trying again. I will try to find a preinstalled version of the game so you can play it without installation.
Still nothing bro, I even asked AI but it too couldn’t help me.
Ok brother, give me some time so I can try to find a preinstalled setup for you. This one works fine for me. By the way, what exactly error are you seeing when you start the game? Can you send me a screenshot?
Also try to search that exact error on Google. Many times the same error already has a solution online, so you can confirm whether it’s a setup problem or an issue with your Windows. Sometimes games fail to launch because of missing files, drivers, or system conflicts, not the game setup itself.
I also have the same problem
But I copied the files in “cracked fixed”(instead of skidrew) to the game folder directly and it loaded the game (showed couples of logos) then it goes white after that
I will trying tho till I have a solution
Watch the video guide follow step by step how to download, install and play the game.
I hope admin reply me with a fix solution 🙂
cuz I am not seeing what I am doing wrong
It keeps showing error of virtual machine stuff and a error 0x0000142 after if copy the files in skidrow
But if I copy the files in “crack fixed” it loads the game for about 2 secs then shows a white screen after
I have watched tons of videos still No fix
Watch this video step by step. This is a 100% working setup. Make sure to install the Redist packages before playing the game, and also turn off your antivirus during installation. Watch How to Download, Install and play the game without any error!
I fixed it(none of the video helped had to install like 8 times over and over again and skidrow was the problem)
but crashes after a while
Will find a solution for the crashes later
Good to hear you fixed it! 👍 Crashes can depend on your PC hardware, drivers, or other software running on your system. We can guide based on common issues, but sometimes it’s hard to know exactly what’s happening on your PC or what steps were done during installation.
Try updating your drivers, installing the latest Redist packages, and running the game as Administrator. Hopefully you’ll find the solution for the crashes soon. 🎮
Please reply me 🙏 I did your exact way without any mistake but atlast showing unable to start with a error code 0xc0000142 , please reply 😢
Error 0xc0000142 usually means the game or app failed to start properly because of missing/corrupted system files, broken Visual C++ or DirectX components, antivirus blocking files, or damaged game files. To fix it, restart your PC first, then run the game as Administrator, install or repair Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributables, DirectX, and .NET Framework, verify the game files or reinstall the game, and make sure Windows Defender or any antivirus has not quarantined crack or game files. If it still appears, update your graphics drivers and try launching the game after a clean reinstall.
Note everyone
Copy the files from the folder named “cracked fixed” to the games files instead of the folder “skidrow”
thx bro
this should’ve been at the top
just wasted an hour arguing with ai and reddit strangers
Ai is kinda dumb in aspect like this
And that is what I dislike about the admins of this website they just ask Ai about a problem and it will still be wrong but they will still paste it in the comments anyways without verifying the problems themselves
I understand your concern, but when we already provide a video in the post showing the full installation process, that is meant to be enough guidance for users. These are basic steps that can be followed directly without needing extra help from AI. Most issues usually happen when a step in the video is missed or not done correctly, so it’s better to carefully re-watch and follow it instead of relying on summaries. The idea is to help users learn the installation process properly so they can handle it easily on their own in the future.
Good thing u said “most” but not all especially for old games like this where it is not stated in the video that we should copy the files in “crack fixed” not “skidrow”
And even for the crashes I haven’t actually found solution for that but u haven’t still addressed that yest
Brother, on some PCs the “Crack Fixed” files work and on others the “Skidrow” files work, so we include both in the setup for compatibility. It’s simple—this is just to make sure the game runs on different systems, so there’s no need to make it complicated.

I understand what you’re saying, but we don’t just rely on AI and copy-paste answers without checking. We also provide proper installation guides and videos in the posts to make things clear for users. Most of the time, issues come from missed steps, incomplete downloads, or problems within the user’s system. Many PCs have existing bugs or misconfigurations, but the issue is often blamed on the site. If something still doesn’t work, you can always point out the exact problem and we’ll help you fix it 👍
