Troubleshooting Monster Hunter Wilds Crashes on Windows

Monster Hunter Wilds, while available on multiple platforms, has presented launch and gameplay crashes for some Windows users. These crashes often stem from incompatibility issues or software conflicts. This guide offers solutions to get your game running smoothly.

Potential Causes and Solutions:

Fix 1: Firewall Access

The game might be blocked by your Windows Firewall. Allowing it through ensures stable server connection.

1. Open Windows Settings, navigate to Update & Security > Windows Security > Firewall & network protection.
2. Select Allow an app through firewall.
3. Click Change settings. Check the "Private" and "Public" boxes for Monster Hunter Wilds (or use Allow another app and manually input the game's file path). Click OK.

Fix 2: Compatibility Mode and Administrator Privileges

Running the game in compatibility mode with administrator privileges can resolve permission or compatibility problems.

1. In your Steam Library, right-click the game, select Manage > Browse local files.
2. Right-click the game's executable (.exe file), choose Properties.
3. Go to the Compatibility tab. Check "Run this program in compatibility mode for Windows 8" and "Run this program as an administrator".
4. Click Apply > OK.

Fix 3: Remove Koalageddon

Koalageddon, a third-party tool, may interfere with the game. Uninstall it via the Control Panel and restart the game.

Fix 4: Update Graphics Drivers (AMD)

AMD users should update to Adrenalin Edition 25.2.1 or the latest version from the AMD website. Other graphics card users should update their drivers from the manufacturer's website.

Fix 5: Delete version.dll (Steam Folder)

The version.dll file in C:Program Files (x86)Steam may cause conflicts. Delete this file and relaunch the game as administrator.

Fix 6: Disable Steam Cloud and Delete Save Files

Corrupted save files can lead to crashes. Disable Steam Cloud synchronization (in game properties) and delete save files located at C:Program Files (x86)SteamuserdataSteam user ID2246340remotewin64_save. Back up your save files before deleting them. MiniTool Power Data Recovery can help restore accidentally deleted files.

Fix 7: Adjust Virtual Memory

Insufficient virtual memory can cause crashes. Increase the paging file size:

1. Search for "SystemPropertiesAdvanced" and press Enter.
2. Under the Advanced tab, click Settings in the Performance section.
3. Go to the Advanced tab and click Change.
4. Choose "Custom size" and set an appropriate size (or let the system manage it). Click Set > OK.

Fix 8: Update BIOS

An outdated BIOS can cause hardware compatibility issues. Back up your system completely before updating your BIOS using software like MiniTool ShadowMaker. Download the latest BIOS from your motherboard manufacturer's website and follow their instructions.
