The game deaded every time I start up the game and cant find an appdata file. I just bought the game and can't play it. I have tried many options. This is the event viewer error.

Looks to be a corrupt/missing file! Is one of the things you've tried restarting Steam and then verifying the game's cache? (Right click on game in library, select properties, go to Local Files and then click Verify Integrity of Game Cache)
If you're running any antivirus, have you tried disabling it? If you go into the game's local files (go into Steam properties, local files and click Browse local files to find it), what files can you see in the Content/GUI/Dialogue folder? It seems to be there the file can't be found!
I am not running an antivirus right now. In the content/GUI/Dialogue folder there is Portraits folder Svar folder Namnbricka.xnb Namnbricka_Large.xnb Pratruta.xnb Svar.xnb (in that order)
In the "Svar" folder, are these files present? arrow.xnb Bot.xnb BotLeft.xnb Left.xnb Top.xnb TopLeft.xnb YourReply.xnb If they are, does the file path to the game folder contain any non-standard characters? Windows gives a "FileNotFoundException", but sometimes they bunch together errors so perhaps it simply can't understand the file path (I'm grasping for straws here). If none of the files are missing, and you have a perfectly standard file path, then there is probably some odd .NET issue at works. In that case I'd recommend refunding the game for now and trying again later down the road (by downloading the demo to see if it works)
