How to Fix Monster Hunter Wilds Not Starting

Troubleshooting Monster Hunter Wilds Launch Issues on PC

Monster Hunter Wilds boasts stunning visuals, but this can sometimes lead to launch problems. If you're experiencing difficulties starting the game on your PC, here are some solutions:

Simple Fixes:

First, try the simplest solution: completely restart Steam. Ensure the Steam process is fully terminated before relaunching. Attempt to start the game again; this might require several tries.

If restarting Steam doesn't resolve the issue, navigate to the game's installation directory. Locate and delete the files CrashReport.exe and CrashReportDLL.dll. Then, try launching the game once more.

More Involved Solutions:

If the above steps fail, a game reinstall might be necessary. Alternatively, contact Capcom support for further assistance. The problem could stem from your system configuration. A fresh download and installation often resolves such issues.

This could be a widespread problem, in which case Capcom may release a patch. If so, patience is key while waiting for an official fix.
