Rocket league not running when I press the play button

[selgiuk]

Hello, can someone help me with a solution for this problem?
Today when I wanted to play Rocket League, I hit Play and nothing happened, the game is not running in background and on Steam do not appear that i am playing RL right now.
I uninstalled the game and installed it again and i have the same problem. The other games start normally.

When a game doesn't open, it usually means that it stops working right after it's started. You can try different possible solutions:
-verify game files on steam
-update your windows version or
drivers
-Check the game cache files
-Disable unnecessary software
-Check your firewall settings and make sure both Steam and the game are excluded.
-Disable Steam Overlay: Friends List, Browser, Chat (some steam services could stop the game)

What Graphic card you have ?

Need to have installed required Microsoft Visuals C++
Right click Windows start button - Applications and features - search C++
You need required C++ 2010s (x86 and x64) and 2015 (x64 should be enough). Also you might have C++ 2O17, need to first uninstall to be able to install C++ 2015.

To be 100% sure upload screenshot of C++ for example through https://imgur.com/upload

Got the same problem as of today. 8 hours ago everything worked fine and just yet it seems to have stopped working. Restarted Steam/PC, cleared cache, disabled cloud, renamed the folder and watched it creating a new one. Visual C++ is also all installed [imgur.com]. No report in my reliability history regarding Rocket League. No launch log avaliable (only the old one (733kb!), [pastebin.com] where it was still working). I also closed every accessible program that was running in the background.

If it started happening without Rocket League being updated at the moment it started creating problems, I don't think it has to do anything with the game then.

C++ should be fine, although I see that you probably reinstalled 2015-2019 yesterday so just in case try reinstall 2010s too. Should be able to choose repair option in Apps or download from article :
https://support.rocketleague.com/hc/en-us/articles/360020269453-How-do-I-Reinstall-Microsoft-C-Packages-

Are you sure there was no Reliability History - View all problem reports?
Also since it didn't create new log you may have issue with OneDrive cloud syncing if you have it, look for example here :
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/sync-files-with-onedrive-in-windows-615391c4-2bd3-4aae-a42a-858262e42a49
and
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/onedrive-is-stuck-on-processing-changes-b386b813-9b66-4e47-8c4c-2b45533edccd

There also could be maybe issue with pending/failed/stucked Windows Updates or Antivirus/Firewall.

You can try look in my guide part "Game won't start" for few more suggestions :

I just made some quick (rouhgly 3 hours) reverse engineering and found out that the "VCRUNTIME140_1.DLL" was randomly deleted out of my registry and thus caused this issue. So maybe its also the case for the OP? Thanks for your help quickER :)

[quickER 🛠]

No problem!
Thanks for following my instructions and showing good example how to reply.

"VCRUNTIME140_1.DLL" from what I know/found is part of C++ 2015.
How did you reverse engineered it? I know there's .exe file for C++ in : Steam/steamapps/common/Steamworks Shared/vcredist/2015 ; but don't remember if that's folder where it's installed. (not currently on PC)

Hopefully it helps to OP too.

Hello! When I start Rocket League it loads for 10 seconds and then just stopps working.
I tried:

Launching it on steam and on Edpic Games.
Deleting Chache
Deleting Config and looked in an folder called "DefaultSystemSettings" The Resolution was weird like 1280x720
I tried starting it in windowed mode in "Launch Option" with : -windowed
I reInstalled the game
Reinstalled Microsoft C++ Packages 2010
I downloaded Framework 4.6.2 Runtime
startet it as and Administrator
I looked in the latest Log and found nothing
Installed latest Graphic Card driver


And I found out I have DirectX 12

Close Gif your game. It's been causing rocket league to crash on startup for a lot of people.

Just in case what is your graphic card?

Instead of just deleting Cache folder do other steps = Try all 3 steps here - deleting Cache, disabling cloud (under General tab not under Update) and renaming folder with steps in link :
https://support.rocketleague.com/hc/en-us/articles/360024292254-How-Do-I-Fix-a-Runtime-or-NTDLL-Error-when-Starting-Rocket-League-

You also need C++ 2015 x64 as i provided in my screenshot :
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/759107995123974194/759108110852948008/2010_2015.jpg

If you found nothing in latest Log then maybe i can see something.
