Try running shadPS4 in a different location, or running it as an administrator. Your issue might be because the emulator is trying to write in the Program Files (x86) folder, which requires administrator access on Windows.

When starting the qt version of the emulator, nothing appears except the command line. I saw solutions to the problem by reinstalling Microsoft Visual Studio C++ Redistributable latest version, I did it and it didn't help, moving the emulator to the C system directory, but for me it is useless😔
