Hello, Eliot,

thanks for reaching to our forum regarding your issue.

From the log, I can see multiple problems:

1) We are not officially supporting Win11 with the game. But since you played before without issue and already (I assume) on Win11, that is not likely the breaking point. I'm writing it just so you know.

2) Please make sure the game uses one (better) graphic card. I assume the GeForce one. Please make sure the game is not trying to launch using the Intel UHD Graphics.

3) Your log is full of "TryChangeToFullscreen failed" errors.

If you are in the game, in the main menu at least, you can try to change the resolution and window mode there. Or if you are not able to get to Options – Display Settings from the game, you can try to locate this file on your PC and change the value manually.

For this, go to SE folder in Roaming, by typing %appdata% into your Windows search bar, you will be redirected to the hidden Roaming folder. After that just follow: \Roaming\SpaceEngineers\. There you should be able to find a SpaceEngineers.cfg file. You can open in using e.g. notepad. Find lines 90 and 92, that says

<Key>WindowMode</Key>

<Value xsi:type="xsd:string">1</Value>

By changing the number in line 92, you can change the Fullscreen setting here manually. It goes like: Windowed 0, Fullscreen window 1 and Fullscreen 2. Save the file and try to run the game.

Hope something from these fixes/workarounds will work for you.

Please let me know.

Kind Regards

Hello, Engineer!

Because there is no new comment from you, and we are unable to reproduce the issue on our own, I will close this thread now as outdated.

If you or any other player will experience this issue again, please make a new thread and provide all needed info there.

Thank you for understanding.
