Game instantly closes on launch, only shows a white window (RTX 4060 Laptop + Intel Iris Xe + Windows 11)
Hello guys
I had been playing the game for 58 hours without any problems until 25 November 2025, when the issues began. The game suddenly stopped launching. When I try to start it, a medium-sized white window opens for a few seconds and then closes automatically. No error message appears.
Here is everything I have tried so far:
- Updated Windows to the latest version.
- Updated all drivers, including GPU drivers.
- Verified game files through Steam.
- Reinstalled the game multiple times here and the launcher version (3+).
- Disabled antivirus / firewall or added exceptions for the game.
- Disabled all overlays (Steam, Discord, NVIDIA, etc.).
- Tried running the game as administrator.
- Tried forcing DirectX 11 via Steam launch options (-dx11) and windowed mode (-windowed -noborder).
- Tried launching directly from the .exe in the game folder, not through Steam.
- Made sure all Visual C++ redistributables and DirectX runtimes are installed/updated.
- Tried disabling Internet / launching offline.
- Set virtual memory manually
- Fresh Windows installation (clean format)
System is completely clean and fresh today. Nothing has worked so far. The game still opens the white window and closes instantly.
My system:
Windows 11 Home (latest updates)
GPU: NVIDIA RTX 4060 Laptop GPU
CPU: Intel i7-13700H
RAM: 32GB
Thank you!
