Launch the game from the Launcher

A lot of bugs like the game keeps on crashing, the game not connecting to the internet, can be solved by this simple trick. When you download your game from the launcher you get a shortcut on your desktop and on your taskbar which makes it easy for you to launch the game.

You don’t have to wait for the launcher to load, you can just launch the game and not worry about other stuff. This also has a downside, this can lead us to the instability of the game, and also the game cannot access the data. To prevent this you can launch the game from the launcher and check if the game launches fine.

Change the Location of the Launcher

This is one of the more weird ones. Make sure the location of the launcher isn’t the same as the location of your game. This can also result in this loss of data. People have reported that changing the location of the launcher can also help in this situation.

If you don’t know how to do this, you can simply right-click on the launcher and click on the open file location. This will lead you to the location of the file, hence the name. From here you can find the launcher and then change its location to another folder.

Make sure the game and the launcher are not in the same location.

Troubleshoot your Account

Accounts can also be a problem in this situation. As you may know, accounts can also get banned and if you try to log in using that account you cannot proceed. To make sure that this is not your PC’s fault or your account’s fault, you can log in to another device.

This game has also been released on mobile phones. You can download it on your phone and then run the application using the same account you were using on your PC. If everything checks out and there is no problem, then this might be your PC’s problem.
