Guild Wars 2

I’ve tried every fix that I could find posted on ANY forum for this problem. It just won’t open. Any thoughts? Maybe some help from a dev? IDK

Have you tried repair/reinstall?

Yep I tried repairing with the properties command, I tried completely deleting and re-installing, I’ve tried disabling security etc. Nothing seems to work. It was really odd because one night I was playing, the next morning it started and hasn’t stopped.

Found this pretty quick based on the error. It seems pretty rare, so I would wager minor corruption on exit or something in that vein. (last NV driver was Sep 14th, so could be an auto update related problem)

OKAY. Good news. I fixed the issue. AND here’s how.
- Delete users/username/AppData/Roaming/Guild Wars 2
- Delete CoherentUI.dll/CoherentUI_Host.exe in the GW2/bin folder

Start launcher and it played without error. GG.

Yep I figured that out last night also! It’s a corruption with the Local.dat file. Deleted that and logged in perfectly. Thanks for the replies!

Mods should really compile proven issues+fixes like this and pin them.
