    Update 10: For "CrypticError: Oops! Oops! Your Cryptic application has crashed. To help us out, please indicate what was going on at the time of the crash, while we gather information." messages, close Teamviewer and Mumble if you have them opened.

    unable to authentice

    unable to contact account server

    this was working perfectly fine yesterday.

    I don't have any other programs running at the same time.

    I too had the same issue after the 6/28 update. Issues with both "NW and STO."

    Tried all the first post suggestions.

    Found "NW" had auto-loaded into WIN 98/3 Compatibility, I switched to WIN 7 Compatibility.

    Both games working normally again. That's what fix worked for me, hopefully this may help.

    When I go to log in, nothing happens. I enter my password, hit enter and .....nothing. No error message or attempt to connect to server. It just sits there. Is this part of the server issue that's going on?

    Issue resolved. I tried a system reboot, then logging in again and that seemed to do the trick.

    Try using taskmanager to shut down GameClient.exe, Neverwinter.exe and Crypticerror.exe, then restart launcher. There's some bug where these will stay in memory but only be visible in taskmanager.

    Hi all! On July 2, game worked fine. Today, after the patch says Ready, I click the Play button but nothing happens! When I click it again, the page disappears! Did I miss a solution to this on this thread?

    Thank you

    To eviledick...I'm such a non comp person, I don't know how to do what you suggested by using the task manager. Could you walk me through it please? I seem to have the same problem as the poster who posted above you.

    Thank you

    I feel obliged to answer for all the gamers out there as I have been trying to figure it out for the past 12hrs by using and applying all the methods mentioned in the forums.

    In order to go to the folder abovementioned, access registry edit by either;

    1. Going to "Start" and typing "regedit" (without the " btw) at the Search field

    OR

    2. Using the 'Run program' console by pressing the Windows key + R and typing "regedit"

    Then go to the folder path HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Cryptic\Cryptic Launcher and deleting the "WindoPos" file.

    The launcher should create a new file and position the launcher squarely in the middle of your screen.

    Mine does this everytime. I close the launcher and restart and it maybe works. The same thing everytime. I have to try 2-4 times to actually be able to log in.

    Hey cryptic, your launcher is not working properly... the launcher gets stuck at "Loading... please wait..."

    Please do something about this...

    Have tried list at beginning minus a complete reinstall if that is the fix, that would equal uninstalling and finding a new game.

    Double click icon, nothing appears to happen, no spash screen, no launcher updating box, nada. Went to task bar along bottom and there is a Neverwinter box as if the game is running, but it does nothing.

    Help please

    Big flipping surprise... the game doesn't work. Again. ****, this is getting annoying.

    This is beyond frustrating and is completely unacceptable. I've had a few bouts of waiting to connect before, but I now cannot access the launcher whatsoever.

    Get your **** together. I'll not spend one more red cent on this game if these simple problems aren't resolved. I know I'm not alone. You're losing money by offering a faulty product.

    Fix it.

    Just had the same problem happen to me: Double click icon, nothing appears to happen, no splash screen, no launcher updating box, etc.

    Thankfully I came across this post and it worked for me. If anyone else is having these issues this is definitely worth a try.

    Remember to back up your registry before you try this though.
