An error occured on start

Postby Lexcols » 18 Oct 2016, 15:18

Trying to start FAF client, a message "An error has occured in the FAF client. It has been automatically reported" shows up. If i press "Ok" it shows again, if I try to close it, it begins to show million times a second. Client is open in background, but unavailable due to blinking error window. Log file attached

Please delete all files inside the folder:
Code: Select all
C:\ProgramData\FAForever\cache\

And delete all files inside the folder
Code: Select all
C:\ProgramData\FAForever\gamedata\

well without gamedata folder you cant start FAF version of the game. Because it is inside the gamedata folder.

I see in your log a UnicodeDecodeError.

Do you use any special letter in windows or username ?
