0009856: Unable to open the game
Basically, when trying to execute the dwarf fortress.exe, it displays an error message saying that ´´Dwarf fortress.exe isnt a valid Win32 file´´
Just open the .exe file to open the game
It has never happened before in my experiences with the game, the version is freshly downladed from the bay12games.com page (SDL) and nor the raws have been altered or mods have been implanted
No tags attached.

You're not the only one, I'd recommend reading through

http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=158868.0 [^] <--- this thread here

Toady has uploaded some stuff for people experiencing technical difficulties for this release. I think he uploaded something for your issue in particular.

It's been a bit of a rough release technically, so I'd keep that thread pinned somewhere for further updates and such.
