Why don't you try not using Discord for it? Use Steam, or just the Standalone launcher. Either should be okay - my Steam one is working fine.

Effortly Posted June 25, 2019 Author Share Posted June 25, 2019 Nothing works as in NOTHING actually works I tried downloading on the Standalone and Steam they just do not launch at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sept3var Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 can you launch it from where the game is located in your files directly from the .exe file? also check your firewall might be blocking it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Effortly Posted June 25, 2019 Author Share Posted June 25, 2019 Nope I can not launch directly, also disabling my firewall doesn't seem to be working Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try setting the launcher as administrator-reset computer-try again. Or unistal the whole thing, erase any folders that may be left (including the one at %appdata%) and try again. If none of that works, check your Ram modules (take them off, clean and back in their place), check drivers... That boring stuff. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, fair enough then. It’s just you mentioned only one in the OP. Are you sure the Laptop is actually able to run it? Sometimes the launcher takes a while to open. Are you able to open the launcher to actually download the game at least? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That way at least people have something to work with. Are all of your drivers updated? Did you try and copy the files from the other laptop? Apparently people were having similar problems years ago. The issue seems to be extra random junk files breaking the launcher. It was reported that if you unistall the game and delete all of Warframe's file you can get it working again. But you have to run the launcher as an Administrator. Here is a link with more information (Steam forums) - >link< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Effortly Posted June 26, 2019 Author Share Posted June 26, 2019 i3-71000@ 3.90GHz, 16GB RAM, 1060 GTX 6GB, Windows 10. Yes all my drivers are updated, I've tried copying files from the other laptop but it doesn't work. I've deleted everything I can find who may be part of Warframe's file but maybe u can enlightened me about how to clear all it's traces. 8 minutes ago, krc473 said: Perhaps you could provide the specs - CPU, RAM, GPU and OS+bit.

Warframe does not support a 32-bit OS, only 64-bit. 3 minutes ago, Effortly said: I've deleted everything I can find who may be part of Warframe's file but maybe u can enlightened me about how to clear all it's traces. I don't know what you have done. So it is hard to say. The link just suggested you search for 'Warframe' on your PC and delete everything that comes up. Do make sure you have Hidden Folders enabled though. What I would perhaps suggest is making a fresh Local User on the machine. Then, download Warframe from here (the official site). See if it will run then. If you have data left in your local user account it might be causing issues (Warframe stuff is stored per user) - a new PC account would solve this. So as to avoid confusion, I do NOT mean a new Warframe account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The CPU seems to be on the lower end, but that shouldn't matter. If creating a new account does not work, you might need to look at using Regedit (don't do that without a guide if you are unsure of what to do).

The game is able to run before but it suddenly couldn't anymore. Any guides on what do delete for Regedit to solve this problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warframe's path is C:\Users\[Account Name]\AppData\Local\Warframe (you can type %appdata% in the search to find it). Have a look at what is in this folder. You might want to just delete the whole folder. It sounds like something is probably corrupted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
