Hi JuRIOh!

A few people have had your issue but no worries, we can try to fix it!

Firstly, what antivirus are you using? It seems as if a couple of antiviruses are having issues with the game and flagging it as malware. If you could whitelist HPAWS.exe or the HPAWS folder on your antivirus it should help in it not crashing and you getting the GetThreadContext failed error.

Also, if you disable your firewall, that should also help in it not bugging out!

Do let us know if this has helped you and we look forward to hearing from you! :steamhappy:

Hey,

I am using Avast. I added HPAWS.exe to the exclusion tab but I still get the same error. I am not using a Firewall.

Any follow up on this issue? I'm having the same error. Already whitelisted HPAWS from my Avast. Not sure what else to do. The frequency of the error is super discouraging for any further game play.

Hey guys,

Sorry for the late reply. Have you tried whitelisting the whole HPAWS folder and not just the HPAWS.exe file?

I have done some googling around and have found a few solutions from other threads. Do check out the links below to try out any of the suggestions they have given:

Do let me know if anything in there has helped you out.

Besides that, there really isn't anything else we can do on our end as this may be an issue with your computer (stemming from either your firewall, anti-virus, or other reasons). Apparently there exists an incompatibility between Unity and certain firewalls and this is what may be throwing the error.

I hope the links above help you and do let us know if anything has worked.

I came back to play this game again (see my comment above) and this error is *still* occurring. It hasn't been addressed and patched nearly two years later? None of the above suggestions alleviate the error.
