Guild Wars 2

Client has been working fine as well as the log in, but as soon as i click play/start or press enter the client vanishes as normal and then acts as if I closed the client.

Tried the -repair method as well as reinstalling my drivers and deleting local data and reinstalling the game.

Has occurred since i updated to the most recent patch of windows 10 and is the only thing i can think of that may be affecting the client/game.

Any help or recommendations would be great. Cheers!

Are you using any 3rd-party programs, like RivaTuner, or such? Try disabling them.

Good luck.

You’re lucky, my whole computer is shutting down. And no, no third party products

unfortunately no but thanks anyways

Windows 10 Creators Update has an issue with all types of overlays, including their own built-in Xbox app / DVR, which you’ll need to disable. If you have an NVidia GPU and have GeForce Experience, disable the sharing / shadowplay /overlay features.

You could also try to force the game into windowed mode using:

Gw2.exe -windowed

If you were using any of the dll mods, delete the bin folders in your GW2 folder.

Your suggestion did the trick! Thank you so much, you’re a life saver.
