REAL FIX for BO6 Crashing/Not Launching with No Error Code

[Captain Trips]

Like some of you, even with a really beefy PC that can run anything, I was experiencing constant crashes in Black Ops 6. I would crash within one minute, or if I was lucky, I could last about five minutes in a TDM game. But most of the time, I wasn't even able to launch the game. I was never given any error code or message. I tried everything: I reinstalled the game, verified the integrity of the files, rolled back my Nvidia driver to 560.70, followed all the tutorials on what to do within the game files, deleted ReWASD, deleted MSI Center, lowered VRAM target for COD to 50%, put it in windowed borderless etc., and it would still crash. Until I found the problem..

The problem was reWASD. And if you already uninstalled it and are still crashing listen to me.

Even though I had deleted ReWASD by uninstalling the application and removing all the files in the folder, it didn’t completely remove the “hidden” folders from my PC.

To fix this crashing issue, you need to reinstall ReWASD (if you’ve already deleted it) and USE THE BUILT IN UNINSTALLER IN THE REWASD FOLDER. This completely removes everything related to ReWASD from your PC, including the hidden files that remain if you just uninstall the application and delete the folder. I restarted my PC afterward, went into File Explorer > This PC > Search This PC, typed in “ReWASD,” and deleted about four leftover files. Then searched again to double check. That’s all I did, and I haven’t crashed since.

It's such a shame a $70 game won't even tell you WHAT EXACTLY IT IS that's causing this problem but hey, I guess that's too much to ask for.

If you've never installed reWASD on your computer then this post isn't for you and I hope you do find your solution.

LMK if this works for you too

It's not just ReWASD. It's a bunch of things.

Yes it can even be Windows itself as it was for me. The new version 24H2 broke the game for me. Reverting back to the previous version solved my problem. No more crashes.
There is something not quite right with DirectX for this game. I don't know if it's the game itself or on Microsoft's end but it's there. Sad thing is, it will most likely never be fixed.

Thank you for this fix! I suspected it was rewasd and deleted it. I've had problems for two weeks trying every fix possible except this!!

even major issue , you get less fps with steam version of game than battlenet or xbox app

To tell you the truth. It should be it’s own game but not in Call Of Duty HQ.

I was hoping this would be helpful but i had never even heard of ReWASD let alone installed it so that's definitely not why the game sucks and crashes constantly. Its just a lazy dev team who knows nothing but copy and paste with maybe 2 people who can actually fix stuff but they're too busy making new content to actually fix anything. so glad i never purchased this game and only got it through gamepass. stop supporting this company until they actually produce a quality title again. we control them by not buying their product and giving them money. utilize that ability..

So just because you never heard of it - it's not helpful or effective? Aha, that's some big ignorance! I mean you clearly can read that this solution works for bunch of people. Maybe your game is crashing because of another reason? I mean if you say it's not the reWASD which cause the game to crash, what is it then?

Sorry but you clearly don't have any clue about the technical matter or how suchs crashes get caused, but you taking your mouth full to talk about the laziness of the Devs? Just for you, it's not that easy! You first have to figure out what caused the crash and then secondly you have to come up with a solution which is/can be very tricky in the programming process.

Uff, hate all the people that don't have any knowledge about programming and game development, but talking the loudest about the subject. -.-

Holy eff stfu you sound like a tool. The Steam version of this game is by far the worst.

So glad I had Gamepass. Only level 30 or so, but had enough. Sad, played CoD MP since CoD2 way back in the day!

What is reWASD? I'm having the same problem. I click play on battle. Net. I get the small window popup it's loading then it just disappears

I had the same issue before, but ever since I turned off the motherboard overclocking about a week ago, I haven’t had any crashes at all. The game’s been running perfectly since then!
