How to Fix Monster Hunter Wilds Not Starting

Encountering trouble launching Monster Hunter Rise on your PC? Don't worry, you're not alone. This visually stunning game can sometimes present unexpected launch issues. Here's how to troubleshoot if Monster Hunter Rise refuses to start:

Quick Fixes:

First, try the simplest solution: completely restart Steam. Ensure the Steam client is fully closed before relaunching it and attempting to start the game. This might require a few tries.

If restarting Steam doesn't work, navigate to the game's installation directory on your PC. Locate and delete the files CrashReport.exe and CrashReportDLL.dll. Then, try launching the game again.

More Involved Solutions:

If the above steps fail, a clean reinstall of the game might be necessary. This often resolves underlying installation corruption.

Should the problem persist after a reinstall, contacting Capcom's customer support is your next step. They may be able to provide further assistance or identify a more specific issue. The problem could stem from your system configuration, but a fresh installation usually eliminates software-related problems.

Keep in mind that widespread launch issues sometimes occur. If this is a common problem, Capcom will likely release a patch to address it. In this case, patience is key while you wait for an official fix.
