What worked for me was to delete the fallout 76 folder under documents, my games

THANK YOU SO MUCH. this fixed it for me. I am playing through the xbox game pass and i couldn't get anything to fix it. But your post saved me. Thank you!

This doesn't seem to be working for me. I deleted Proj76 and Proj76Pref files. Its starts to load then closes. I've been playing for a few days now then this ...I did update my drivers. Oh yes, also downloaded game through game pass as well.

Try disabling MSI afterburner if you have it

launch game from game folder file exe file as a administrator

check firewall and or virus protector and add fallout 76 as a exception
