self uninstalled

[JackalX137]

I love warframe its one of the few games I can say that about not just now but ever, however my screen went red because of some loose wire and so I put it back in only to then not have a screen at all while playing so I had to just cut the power to my pc as I couldn't log out nor shut down as I couldn't see anything until I fixed everything, once I got the wire working and tried to get back to the game what a lovely surprise to find a new and worse problem now my warframe has uninstalled itself... itll only be about 13* hours till I can log back in yay.. I don't throw money at warframe for this crap, everytime I have a blackout or my pc crashes or something my game is just going to uninstall it self again I assume? 😡

What you don’t seem to realise is that this is not, and never has been, exclusive to Warframe. I have had this happen a few times and stuff has uninstalled. It has been Warframe once (I was playing at the time), and at a different time, it was the game I was playing at that point.

• I have also had various other software (I.e. Nvidia) uninstall itself at the same time.

Edit: There is no guarantee that the power shutting off will break the game. My last power cut happened while I was playing Warframe, the game was fine after.

This isn't really a problem with Warframe. Important cords are not supposed to come out when your PC is on, if they do, problems can happen, such as loss of data. A PC crash is a lot different than a power cord falling out somehow, and the OS is usually better at keeping things intact if your PC crashes. Based on your post, I would assume your monitor cord got unplugged from the GPU, which would result in not being able to see anything. You're only supposed to turn off a PC with either the shutdown button from windows, or the power button on your tower if necessary. I would hope most people don't pull out the power cord to shutdown their PC.

Using Steam? If yes, it might just be the manifest file that disappeared. Possible fix if you did not tell Steam to download and install: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/923678-game-disappearing-from-steam-library-how-to-fix/
