I have been trying to start STO for the past hour. Each time I start the launcher, I log in, but I never get the Engage button.
It just sits there saying "Version ST.70.20161113a.35."
Then, I get the CrypticError Oops box that says "Your Cryptic application has crashed."
Here it the Tracert

I wish I knew a solution to it. Perhaps you could try temporarily moving the whole game out of the main folder, then delete the launcher files, and then re-download it then place the game back in the folder right after.
The launcher still crashes.

So I am able to get STO's launcher up and click "Engage" to start the game, the Cryptic loading screen comes up and gets somewhere between 50 & 75% and then the game crash's. Cryptic error program pop's up and wants to submit data, but it never succeeds no matter how long I leave it.
Not only that, but the game changes my screen resolution from 1920*1080 to 1600*900, even though my in-game resolution is set to 1920*1080.

- I do not have issue's launching and playing other online games - such as Elder Scrolls Online, Wildstar, Diablo 3, Guild Wars 2, etc.
- I have added STO to the exclusion list of my virus-scan and firewall, no difference
- I have tried 'Safe mode' via launcher options, no difference
- - Tried STO client from Steam & ARC, both giving me this issue.
Note, I've been having trouble making this post for some reason. I originally tried posting this 2 days ago. This is an edited post on 29/01/2015 (my time) to reflect my new circumstance.
I have actually managed to resolve this issue. What I did was:
- Uninstalled STO
- Deleted all STO files & folders found in /Documents/ & /Users/ & /games/ (I install Games in a /Games/ directory, not Program Files)
- rebooted
- ran CCleaner and got rid of all temporary files, windows logs, etc as well as cleaning all registry entries
- rebooted again
- re-installed via the ARC client 'Install' button.
- waited 12 hours for it to download the 20GB for the game
- Note: the install froze/locked-up on me once. I re-booted and started it again, finished the install without another hitch.
- rebooted after it finished updating the game.
Game now launches and runs for me. So if your having this issue... try doing what I did - uninstall the client, delete all STO folders, run CCleaner, reboot the computer, then re-install. Hopefully this resolves the issue for you.
