Game won't launch due to DEP - Rosanekochan - 12-26-2015

I purchased Amnesia Dark Descent from Steam but it won't launch even after re-installing. Everytime I want to launch it I get a windows error that the DEP won't allow the launch. But I also can't change the DEP settings to exclude Amnesia because when I try to do that it tells me the DEP can't be turned off for this program Sad
