FAF Client crashes on launch / Startup error
-
There's just a client.prefs file in
%USERPROFILE%/AppData\Roaming\Forged Alliance Forever\
i'm not able to drop into this box:[client.prefs](Invalid file type. Allowed types are: .png, .jpg, .bmp, .txt, .log, .gif, .webp, .csv, .pdf, .xls, .doc, .zip, .7z, .rar, .dds, .jpeg)
There aren't any hidden fils as well, I have this programm called TOTAL CMD64 which would show me any hidden fils.
I'm not sure if this helps buthere is the Text from client.prefs:

hi i have same problem, yesterday first. when i run online game
-
i know, must download new driver graphics, restart pc and run faf forever.
-
-
Whats next to do?
-
i only instaled driver graphic, restart pc its all. before instaled i searched all "forever" directory on "C" storage and delete
-
@Anybody00 Can you please copy the text from the error message & save it in a text file, then post that file to this thread per the previous steps so those that can help have that to review?
-
The Error message
java.lang.RuntimeException Exceptio.txt -
Which OS and security solution do you use? @Anybody00
Maybe it is related to user permission rights or security software is interfering. -
My pc runs on windows, Edition Windows 11 Pro, Version: 21H2 and I'm using Avast Free Antivirus.
My pc is still at version 21H2 and when I check for updates there's nothing new shown. Last time I tried installing such an update it didn't work. Could that be a problem? -
I bet all my channel points from FAF Twitch, that Avast is causing issues. Try to whitelist/deactivate/uninstall for testing purpose and try again with FAF.
-
Still didn't work unfortunatly, I did remove Avast and I reinstalled FAF.
Here's the error message
java.lang.RuntimeException Exceptio.txt -
@anybody00 did you restart your PC? I remember that that fixed it for someone with with a similar issue as Avast was still lurking around after it got uninstalled
-
Yes, I did restart my pc. After that I looked for files named with avast and I removed them too.
-
To be sure, remove those folders before you reinstall FAF:
C:\ProgramData\FAForever %LOCALAPPDATA%\Gas Powered Games\Supreme Commander Forged Alliance\And double check after the installation that you have the necessary permissions to access and read the files/directory.
Your last log has the same error as your first one:
Caused by: java.nio.file.FileSystemException: C:\ProgramData\FAForever\cache\stylesheets: Die Datei oder das Verzeichnis ist beschädigt und nicht lesbar(ENG translation: The file or directory is corrupted and not readable)
-
Hi,
removing the two folders did help.
(Actually the FAF folder wasn't deletable in any way so I just renamed it)I can now launch FAF normally.
Thank you for your support:)
-
It is good that the main problem was fixed but it's concerning that you couldn't delete the folder: it's possible that you had some process still running or your disk might be damaged.
Consider a disk checker scan just to know if you need to replace your drive.

I have a similar problem. It starts with same header, but its about "preferenceService".

Comment that After having installed SupCom FA, i had issue with this:
C:\ProgramData\FAForever%LOCALAPPDATA%\Gas Powered Games\Supreme Commander Forged Alliance\
Because 1) a steam install lua asks for that gas powered folder and precents FA from launching. Editing that lua file and removing those 2 lines allows normal startup of FA from steam, but the FAF client kept crashing (I did delete it and re-install it).
After reading this thread, i noticed that I had a previous installation of FAF in 2020 in a windows 7 era, so I deleted the program data folder, but the issue remains.
Now I am here.
