    • If your computer doesn't have enough space for update then that might be your problem. Also DE is trying really hard to update servers.

    • Try loading it without DirectX11 under the settings at the initial launcher box...it helped for me and it started up fine. Good luck.

    • Verify cache on game launcher options button then run Optimize. Also if you overclocked CPU, check for stability issue.

    • What Ilazak posted has helped fix this issue for most people, so Id give that a try if you are unable to login after U15

      Try not being an jerk and actually give advice instead of stroking your pathetic ego.

      Even Im getting random crashes, namely a rare one when I look up and jump to perform an aerial attack. No idea why it crashes, but thats what bugfixes are for.

      Dude this is exactly my problem.

      When i use the Aerial Attack the game freezes sometimes.

      Something really got fucked up in U15 and they cant get it fixed so far.

    • Aerial attacks are a new thing, there will be bugs. Take it from me, when you start adding things to a video game, completely insane things happen to cause crashes in the most unexpected places.

      Of cause, but it keeps getting me frustrated and I lost so much loot and XP.

      Needs a fix asap, makes playing useless cause of unpredictable freezes.

    • Eh, I only get that about once every 10 missions, maybe every 15. Its still fully possible to play.

      Loading editor
    • Support told me to scan for malware,

      though its obvious that this bug has to do with U15 and the Aerial Attack.

      Optimizing and verifying didnt help.

      When they ship a hotfix/patch I log in and 1-3 games later it crashes while an Aerial Attack, so i get frustrated again and dont log in for 2 days.

      In addition I had bugs not giving me loot or XP even if I complete the mission withot a freeze. Thats how it looks since U15, not playable to me.

    • It crashes here also... If I go and disable everything... to use only directx9 and window mode in the launcher it works. As soon i go full screen it crashes... .. But if you change the resolution and fullscreen mode in the game it keeps on working until new start of the game. Wtf is up with that... at least its a workaround... but c'mon fix this already... This happens on my new PC with GTX 970 4 GB.

      It depends how long ago you had updated your game or how many files the launcher decided to update in case it found a disrepancy with them. Do you use steam to run Warframe normally? And by your comment you went into the files and launched the launcher there, was the update triggered by opening the launcher or did you use any of the options in the launcher to trigger the update?

      you fucking 12 year old.

      You are the ones behaving like a child bragging about your rigs and looking down on others who dont have enough money to put a good one together. Pretty sure you used your parents money. An adult wouldnt behave like that.

    • I have so many games and Warframe seems to be the only one where it's constantly a battle to keep playing. Whether it be a crash for no reason, black screen or random glitch moments, Warframe has it all. Seriously, this is a massive pain in the ass.

    • Hi. So, when people have the launcher crash when trying to install, I ran into this problem, and think I can help.

      Due to some functions being depriciated on later versions of Windows, anytime the game tries to call those functions, a crash happens. Don't worry, there is a work-around. It isn't the actual game that is having the problem, it's the installer. Navigate to your steamlibrary>Common>Warframe>Tools. Go into properties of Launcher.exe, and put compatibility mode to Windows 7.

      DO NOT run the launcher from steam! Just open it from there. It will ask you to locate the instillation folder, aka steamlibrary>common>warframe, and then it will ask you to agree to EULA and TOS. At this point, the game will start to install, all the while saying 'checking for new content'.

      This fixed the entire 'Launcher Crashing' bug for me, I hope it helps you as well!

      probably ur progress will be saved bcause accounts and stuff are stored server sided

      just remember ur login email and password

    • If you start the download on steam, you can copy the files from the website download into the steam folder (just make sure the folder names are correct when you move so you know you put it in the right spot). then just verify cache and it should be faster than redownloading the game through steam. Yes your account is saved, things like options you have changed, favorited colors, those will be gone, but they are easily re-set.

      Probably because the crash has absolutely nothing at all to do with how much harddrive space you have. You could somehow have several billion terabytes and a crash can still happen. Do some problem solving.

      Open launcher, click gear wheel, should be pretty clear from there.

      This is the same problem for me! Just after the plains of thingy updtae, I press play and the game starts to load-up but then when it gets to about 5% of the way across the loading bar, it just stops and says; 'Not responding plz do something lol' (not the exact quote btw)

      Well there are over 70,000 players trying to play the game right now so downloads and connections can be tempermental for those with poorer connection to the servers. Ensure your file integrity is right in the launcher in case the download failed for you and try again.

Steam Keeps Crashing On Startup

Steam Is Crashing

Hello,
I am having a problem with multiple games in my steam library in which when I launch the games, the games opens and then within a few seconds crashes to the desktop. They only way around this I have found is to run the games in compatibility mode for windows XP (service pack 3) and as an administrator in some cases. However there is at least one game (Insurgency) in which this does not work. Some of the games which I have experience the main problem with are;
Euro Truck Simulator 2 (which I did manage to fix by running it in OpenGL, it seems fine now when I run it with DirectX),
Grand Theft Auto V (which did the same thing but now all of a sudden as the error 'Please run Grand Theft Auto V using PlayGTAV.exe.' I don't understand this as I am booting the game from steam which then opens the Rockstar Social Club Launcher),
Insurgency as mentioned before (this just crashes straight to the desktop no matter what I do, if I sit in the menu, after a few seconds it crashes and the same for when I load a game.)
I also had the problem with Skyrim but i don't mind running that in compatibility mode as I can just put that down the the age of the game however the others which did run fine on my PC I cannot understand.
Some other games in which this happens are:
Rocket League
Mirror's Edge
Counter Strike Global Offensive (which i have got to work in compatibility mode as an administrator) But it did work fine before.
That's my problem. I cannot understand why this has happened as nothing dramatic has changed on my pc. The compatibility mode work around i have got to work does only work on a few games but I shouldn't have to do that when i know that the games run flawlessly on my PC. Like i said ETS2 seems to have fixed it self from running once in OpenGL but that's the only one that works as it did.
In case you where wondering my pc specs are:
i5 7400
GTX 750ti
1TB Western Digital HDD
Gigabyte H110M-S2H motherboard
16GB of HyperX Fury 2400mhz ram (2x8GB sticks)
Sorry for writing an essay but I just feel you would need as many details as possible. If you need to know anything else, please ask as a would like to get this resolved.
Thanks again
Harry B.
