Space Engineers.cfg not found

GL0CK117 shared this bug 20 months ago
Won't Fix

Hello,


After my Space Engineers could not launch on Steam, I found a Steam thread regarding my problem. I was told that deleting the .cfg file might help reset your settings back to default and essentially run Space Engineers in its default state, but the .cfg file has not been recreated, and I am getting a new error log. I will attach the error log here.


Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hello, GL0CK117,

thank you for letting us know about your issue.

This is whole log that you you are getting? This five lines? So the game is not starting at all for you, not crashing after running and loading it, right?

If there is more to the log, please share me whole log, to see if there is any other error/exception.

You can access your log files by typing %appdata% into your Windows search bar and you will be redirected to the hidden Roaming folder. After that just follow: \Roaming\SpaceEngineers.

Please also share me a log from Windows event viewer. You can find "how to" here:

https://www.spaceengineersgame.com/troubleshooting/game-will-not-start-issues/

Looking forward both logs.

Thanks in advance.

Kind Regards

Sorry for the delay, but you're right, that wasn't the whole log. The whole log is this:

I would like to note that for whatever odd reason, the game would launch when I ran the Windows Event Viewer. It would not launch otherwise. I couldn't find a Windows Event Viewer log regarding Space Engineers or anything of the sort, and this log in my Space Engineers app data was the only error log I could produce. I wish I had a better explanation for what just happened, but the game just launched as soon as I opened the Windows Event Viewer.

Hello, GLOCK117,

thank you for writing back to us with the update.

Once you got the game started (with the help of Event Viewer), the game should create you new config file. Can you check? You can find the config file in the Roaming/SE folder. It should be named SpaceEngineers.cfg.

That should sort out your problem, right? When/if you are able to load the game, also the config file should be created.

Can you please let me know if you are still experiencing this issue?

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there is no new comment from you, and we are unable to reproduce the issue on our own, I will close this thread now as outdated.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

Kind Regards
