In the launcher Arma3 (arma3launcher.exe), under the options, select the platform - 64bit. Tried it?

Hello.

If you received the error 0xC000012F - STATUS_INVALID_IMAGE_NOT_MZ.

This error is raised when the EXE or DLLs, either in the game folder or in the system folders, are corrupted. Possible solutions you can try:

  • Verify the integrity of the game cache using Steam.
  • Re-install DirectX.
  • Uninstall the Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable package (both x86 and x64 version), restart your computer and install the package again (do not use the Repair function).
  • Run the Windows System File Check tool to repair corrupted system files.
  • To identify the precise DLL that is causing an issue.
    • Download a 64-bit version of the Microsoft Dependency Walker and open arma3_x64.exe with it. The libraries with a red icon are the corrupted ones.
    • Download a 32-bit version of the Microsoft Dependency Walker and open arma3.exe with it. The libraries with a red icon are the corrupted ones.

Please let us know if this helped.
