Hello, Jacob,

thank you for letting us know about this issue that you are experiencing.

Can you please provide me more information?

Is there any error window displayed, when you try to launch the game? What does it say? Can you please show me a screenshot of this error window?

Do you own and run the game through Steam?

When was the last time the game was working properly for you? Did anything chanted (your PC, some HW parts...) in the meantime?

Can you please try these workarounds?

  • Verify your game files in Steam – right-click on Space Engineers in Steam Library → Properties → Installed Files → Verify Integrity of Game Files
  • Delete SpaceEngineers.cfg file (it means your game configuration will be deleted) – you can access your SpaceEngineers.cfg by typing %appdata% into your Windows search bar and you will be redirected to the hidden Roaming folder. After that just follow: \Roaming\SpaceEngineers.
  • Delete ShaderCache folder – same access as above
  • Back up your whole Space Engineers Roaming folder and delete it
  • Restart Steam
  • Reinstall VC Redist 2017
  • Update graphic drivers
  • Reinstall the game
  • Make sure your operating system is fully updated

Please let me know if anything from this list worked for you. If not, can you please share me a log file from the game and one from the Windows Event Viewer?

For game logs:

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.

You can find how-to with Windows Event Viewer here:
