[Steam version] MapViewOfFile failed

I downloaded the game just moments ago and I launched the game only to get this error message about MapViewOfFile failing.

I tried launching again few times but to no effect. The error message stops any attempts to actually launch the game.

While searching for a solution on the forums/googling, I'm defragmenting the game files to see if that helps.

Any help for this problem? I'm using the Steam version of the game by the way. :ugeek:

Apparently there is already a thread about the same issue. Posts indicate that the problem can be solved by verifying game cache.

Forgive me for not searching enough for a similar thread :roll:

EDIT: Solution: You can also fix this by defragmenting the game files
