Batman: Arkham city: Games for windows live doesn't pop up!

Hi, I'm here today because I have some problems with Games for Windows Live, or GFWL. I used it for many games, including Arkham Asylum, in which GFWL works fine, but when I try to open up GFWL in Arkham city pressing home, nothing happens. I reinstalled GFWL, updated it, and did all sorts of things, but nothing seems to be working. Any fixes? (Basically, I'm saying that even with GFWL installed, GFWL does not pop up in Arkham City even when I press home button and the "LIVE" button in-game.) Thanks in advance.

    Okay buddy, listen up(Applies to all Windows 8 x64 sys users), if you still haven't found a solution after going through these pages, here's the solution(dotnet 4.0 should do fine):

    1. Uninstall gfwl. Restart your sys.
    2. Download gfwl from here: http://www.xbox.com/en-US/LIVE/PC/DownloadClient
    3. Right click on the gfwl setup icon, select Properties, move to the Compatibility tab, and set your Compatibility Mode option to WINDOWS 7(very imp!).
    4. Save and run the setup.
    5. Start up your game and it should work.

    Proof: I've tried it on my pc(win 8 x64). It works just fine!

    Even More Proof: Lots of other win 8 users have thanked me.

    I followed all of your steps and still had no luck. I am running windows 8 pro x64. When I tried to install the dot.Net.fx 4.0 the installer told me I already had it installed. That was my only deviation from your instructions.

    The game launches fine, but the home button does not do anything. Clicking on the windows live button in game also does nothing.

    I have installed and reinstalled batman and gfwl over and over. Any other ideas on what I can do to get saves to work?

    This is my exact same issue, is there a real fix for this yet? this sucks bigtime. when i log in to gfwl it shows my percentage of game beaten It just wont pop up in game and allow me to continue from last save. please help?
