It seems the game only launches perfectly when it has to regenerate it's setting ini files. ini settings files for EFT every time I quit the game for it to launch again without freezing. I seem to have found another fix for this bug. So far the only fix is to constantly launch/end task via task manager till it works. I'm at an absolute loss here, nothing like this has ever happened before! Weird thing is, is that sometimes the game will startup like normal, but it has about a 0.01% of actually happening, sometimes the game crashes after a bit sometimes it doesn't. I never watched the task manager when playing on older versions so I'm not sure if this is related or not.
I did notice that watching the task manager a second separate instance of tarkov opens then closes right before the game freezes. Also there is no folder for EFT in the documents folder, even when playing through an official EFT match first. One thing to note is that some of the steps on the FAQ pertaining to the issue seem to be out of date, specifically for steps 2 and 4, like trying to whitelist the module.dll, as there is no modules folder in the 3.4.1 install of AKI(or any file named module.dll. Tried disabling fullscreen optimizations.Tried removing temp files via the launcher.Tried changing the install location of both EFT and SPT to a different drive.After deleting all files, and uninstalling/reinstalling EFT I tried again but came across the exact same problem. I eventually gave up and decided to play my 3.2.5 install to find that it had the exact same issue(I did not alter my files since the last time I played). I tried troubleshooting it by reading through the FAQ and following the steps to no avail. Try to create an additional account in your OS and try to run the game through it.After a 2-3 month long hiatus from the game I decided to install 3.4.1 because KMC got an update, after going through the routine install I found that I couldn't play the game, it would freeze a second or so after starting up, getting stuck on the splash screen. Try to change the place to install the game from one disc to another. Install all Windows updates available in the Update Center. If there are any errors found,Ĭheck the installed OS files using command line command sfc /scannow NET Framework (Windows 7, 8, 8.1):Ĭheck the system disk and game disk with CheckDisk. Temporarily turn off all antivirus and security programs, such as Windows Defender
