Cliff of Dover Launcher has encountered a problem and needs to close

[iangoh84]

anyone got a solution?

I disabled antivirus..(bit defender) still no good..

Go to your CoD folder, usually it can be located somewhere like this:

C:\Users\<your username>\Documents\1C SoftClub\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover

You should see a file called conf.ini

Delete or rename that file and try restarting CoD.

Also make your you have steam cloud turned off in Steam so that it doesn't keep overwiting the conf.ini with the default one.

Tried that.....

still the same result.. conf.ini gets created again.

what is the reason ?... of launcher crashing ?

[Flanker35M]

S!

For some reason there are 2 instances of Cliffs running when I got the Launcher error. I launched via Steam so no chance of double start?

I am seeing this on the RU version as well, seemed to get better when i set the video to the monitors native resolution?
I have a 2500 pixel monitor, I was trying to tone it down to get some better performance.

Sometimes it happens that after installing a new game thru Steam you have some file corruption. You can perform an integrity check of the game cache.
Even if the game cache is not corrupt, it sometimes pays of to also check the file cache fragmentation.

Verify integrity of game cache:
1.Load Steam
2.From the Library section, right-click on the game and select Properties from the menu.
3.Select the Local files tab and click the Verify integrity of game cache... button.
4.Steam will verify the game's files - this process may take several minutes.
5.Once the process is completed, the Check Window will automatically exit.

If any corruption is found, Steam will re-download any of the files that failed the CRC.

Yes my Russian version seems to have 2 launcher windows open as well,one is just a black screen.Had a few instances of having to close the game through the task manager,and crashes if trying to change resolution.
