EXC ArgumentException

ArgumentException: An item with the same key has already been added.

Why am I getting this popup?

But I am not using any mods

If its just a clean install with no extra files ive no idea why you would get that, That error is the game telling you its loading up 2 of something with the same name key..

All I know is the error started happening after this https://steamcommunity.com/app/251570/discussions/0/3190242182152077664/

Umm maybe Corrupted Cache but thats only a guess.. If its some how keeping a bit of old code it will give that error as it will think theres 2, Best thing to do is post your Log file as this will tell you exactly were & what is happening

The full error says.

ArgumentException: An item with the same key has already been added. Key: Steam_76561198126259051

Where do I find this Log file?

[Anya]

I am getting this same error recently. On another PC I don't get the error. I did an uninstall and deleted all remaining 7dtd files from the game folder and user/appdata/roaming 7dtd folder and reinstalled clean to a different drive. same results. uninstalled steamworks and reinstalled. same results.

same I deleted all 7dtd data reinstalled steamworks can't find a fix

[jmacdonald]

any answer to this? im now getting it

[jmacdonald]

I fixed this by deleting the registry entry at

[KEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\The Fun Pimps\7 Days To Die]

[Anya]

Thanks for the info. I was able to narrow it down to the "EOSMapping" key in the 7dtd registry. Deleting that alone took care of the issue.

[Anya]

But then it's back after playing the game, exiting 7dtd then going back in.... must be steam/fun pimps issue.

[jmacdonald]

interesting, i found above solution from:
https://community.7daystodie.com/topic/28072-key-has-already-been-added/#comment-477039

I haven't had the error come back for me yet.
