But to the frustration of many gamers, some system and in-game glitches come in the way of smooth gameplay. While the developers of the first-person shooter game try to resolve some issues by releasing hotfixes, certain system glitches still manage to mess things up.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re one of such frustrated users, you don\u2019t need to jump from forum to forum, checking for solutions to common Warframe bugs, as we have filled this article with fixes for many bugs and glitches that have been plaguing gamers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We\u2019ll show you different problems connected to the game and all the relevant methods that can help you resolve each problem.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Check your system\u2019s specifications<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If your system is going to run Warframe without issues, it must, at least, meet the game\u2019s minimum requirements. While Warframe\u2019s minimum requirements are not too much, judging from the prevalence of modern high-spec computers, some users still overlook certain specifications. Below, you\u2019ll find the official minimum requirements of the game and how to find out if your computer is lacking in any way:<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Minimum Requirements:<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Operating System: Windows 7 (64-bit)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Processor: AMD Athlon x64 4000+<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">System Memory: 4 GB<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Free hard Disk Space: 35 GB<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">GPU: DirectX10 and above compatible graphics card<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As you can see, the requirements for the game are not quite high-end, meaning that virtually every computer out there should be able to run it. That said, there are little things that some gamers tend to overlook, such as the architecture of the OS (if it\u2019s 64-bit or 32-bit) and their DirectX version. You should note that the game isn\u2019t compatible with 32-bit operating systems.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here\u2019s how to check your system\u2019s specifications against Warframe\u2019s requirements:<\/span><\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Open the Start menu and launch the Settings app.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Click on the System label once the home screen of Settings appears.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Go to the left pane of the System screen, scroll down, and then click on About.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Now, on the right pane, you\u2019ll find your system\u2019s information under Device Specifications.

Sometimes, the game\u2019s launcher fails to respond, and other times, it crashes just after startup or login. As for crashing issues, they occur in the middle of gameplay. You\u2019ll find different fixes for these issues below.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>First Fix: Make Sure Your Graphics Card Driver Is Up-To-Date<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You must know that your graphics processing unit carries the weight of your gaming experience, and much of this relies on its driver. Your display driver is responsible for the communication between your system and your GPU, and the program has to be compatible with your OS, API, and game for things to work smoothly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A lot of the crashing and launching issues faced by gamers have been traced back to a faulty, missing, or obsolete driver. Fixing the problem here requires you to install the latest driver for your card. There are different methods involved in making sure your display card driver is up-to-date, and we\u2019ll be showing you how.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Use dedicated software<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Using a dedicated program such as Auslogics Driver Updater provides you with the means of doing things easily and also gives you the ability to check whether device drivers on your system, not just your graphics card driver, are problematic.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The tool works by scanning your PC to fish out problem drivers. Once it detects drivers that are either faulty or out of date, it goes ahead to download and install their latest version. Another great thing about the program is that it puts your mind at ease considering the particular driver you get to install. Recent drivers are installed from a database containing the latest manufacturer-approved drivers.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The steps below will show you how to use Auslogics Driver Updater:<\/span><\/h4>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Follow<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.auslogics.com\/en\/software\/driver-updater\/\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">this link<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to download Auslogics Driver Updater.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Go to the folder where you saved the installer and run it. It\u2019s usually your Downloads folder.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Select your preferred language and click on the Install button.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once the installation completes, the tool will launch and start scanning your computer for problem drivers. If it doesn\u2019t launch automatically after the installation, go to the Start menu, search for it, launch it, and then click on the Start Search button once it opens.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You\u2019ll find your graphics card driver on the list of problematic drivers if it\u2019s faulty, missing, or out-of-date. Allow the tool to perform the update and then restart your system once it\u2019s done.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Launch Warframe and check if it still crashes or refuses to launch.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3>Updating your display driver using Device Manager<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Using Device Manager is another means of downloading and installing a driver that is compatible with your version of Windows. That said, Device Manager is not always reliable, but you can give it a try since some users were able to use it successfully. Here\u2019s how to perform a driver update using the built-in program:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Press the Windows logo key and the R key on your keyboard simultaneously to launch Run.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once Run appears, type \u201cdevmgmt.msc\u201d (without the quotes) into the text field and press Enter.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Device Manager will now show up.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Go to the Display Adapters drop-down and expand it.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Right-click your main graphics card and click on Update Driver.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, click on \u201cSearch automatically for updated driver software\u201d once you see the Update Driver window.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Allow Windows to complete its online search for your card\u2019s latest driver.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your driver will be downloaded and installed automatically if Windows finds it.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3>Updating your driver using the proprietary program<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Downloading and installing your card\u2019s driver online is another way to go, but it\u2019s quite risky, as a simple oversight can cause you to download a driver that is meant for another card model. To make sure you download the right program, consider using Auslogics Driver Updater or the proprietary software of your card\u2019s manufacturer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Below, we\u2019ll be showing you how to use programs developed by graphics card manufacturers to update your driver.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>For Nvidia:<\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Right-click your Desktop and click on Nvidia Control Panel in the context menu.

The launching and crashing issues you\u2019re facing might be because the game is limited. Many users reported that running the game as an administrator had resolved the issue. Here are the steps you should follow:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Open a File Explorer window and navigate to Warframe\u2019s folder. It\u2019s usually in the following path:<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><b>C:\/program files(x86)\/steam\/steamapps\/common\/warframe<\/b><\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can also access the game\u2019s folder through Steam. Open Steam, click on Library, right-click Warframe and click on Properties, then click on Local Files and select Browse Local Files.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Locate the game\u2019s executable file, right-click it and select Properties.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once the Properties dialog opens, switch to the Compatibility tab.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Under the Compatibility tab, check the box that says, \u201cRun the program as an administrator.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Click OK and relaunch the game.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>Uninstall Razer SDK Core Components if the Game Crashes after Login<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some users complained that the game kept crashing after they had logged in. If this is the same launch issue that you\u2019re facing, you can get rid of it by removing Razer SDK components from your system. This method worked like a charm for many users, and we\u2019re sure it\u2019s the resolution to your problem.

Your game requires its files to work properly. If any of these files are corrupt or missing, Warframe will encounter certain errors such as crashing or not launching, depending on the problematic file. To make sure that a file isn\u2019t the cause of the problem, follow the guides below to verify your game\u2019s files:<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Using Steam:<\/span><\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Go to the Start menu, search for Steam, and then launch the client.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once Steam opens, go to the top of the window and click on Library.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, locate Warframe under Library, right-click it, and then click on Properties.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Go to the right pane and switch to the Local Files sub-tab.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Under Local Files, click on the button that says, \u201cVerify integrity of game files\u2026\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Steam Client will now check your game\u2019s local files for irregularities and replace any faulty or missing file from the game\u2019s server.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, relaunch the game and check for the problem.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Using the game\u2019s launcher:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Open Warframe, go to the top-right area of the window and click on the cog icon.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once the Settings window opens, go to the left side and click on the Verify button under Download Cache.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once the verification process is complete, you can choose to Defrag if the tool prompts you.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reboot your PC and launch the game again to check for the issue.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>Adjust the Game\u2019s Settings<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re experiencing crash issues, they might be connected to your in-game settings. Sometimes, this might be because your system\u2019s specs are close to the game\u2019s minimum requirements or not compatible with the game. You can fix the problem by tweaking certain settings. Follow these steps:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Open the game.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the middle of gameplay, tap the Esc key and click on Options.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once Options opens, switch to the Audio tab and disable options, including:<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reverb<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mute When Running in Background<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mute chat notifications<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Enable Voice<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Auto Gain Control (outbound)<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, move over to the Display tab. Set Display Mode to Windowed and change the Preset option to low under Graphics Quality.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Save your changes and exit the game. Launch the game again to check for the problem.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>Disable Nvidia PhysX<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nvidia PhysX is an SDK engine developed by Nvidia to help improve the gaming experience. While the engine has helped many users improve their gaming quality, some gamers have complained about it causing several issues. It\u2019s also been reported that the engine clashes with Warframe as the game doesn\u2019t seem to support it. To fix the problem you\u2019re facing, follow these steps:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Open Nvidia Control Panel by clicking on your Desktop and selecting Nvidia Control Panel.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once the app opens, go to the left pane, expand 3D settings, and then click on Set PhysX Configuration.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, go to the right pane and choose CPU from the \u201cSelect a PhysX processor\u201d drop-down menu.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Close the control panel and relaunch the game.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>Stop Overclocking Your CPU and GPU<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CPU and GPU overclocking is now common practise among gamers.

Integrated graphics are mostly used by default to increase battery performance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To fix the issue in this case, try switching to your dedicated GPU.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Follow these steps if you have an Nvidia card:<\/span><\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Right-click on your Desktop and choose Nvidia Control Panel from the context menu.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once Nvidia Control Panel opens, go to the left pane and expand 3D Settings.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Click on Manage 3D Settings.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the right pane, switch to the Program Settings tab.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Choose Warframe in the \u201cSelect program to customize\u201d drop-down.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Under \u201cSelect the preferred graphics processor for this program\u201d, choose High-Performance Nvidia Processor.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have an AMD graphics card, follow these steps:<\/span><\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Right-click anywhere on your Desktop and select AMD Radeon Settings from the context menu.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once the application opens, click on the Gaming button at the top of the window.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once the Gaming menu opens, click on Global Settings.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, locate GPU Workload on the Global Graphics tab, click on it, and then select Graphics from the drop-down.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Restart the program, and your default GPU should be switched.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>Set the Game\u2019s Priority to High in Task Manager<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This method is more of a performance boost. Setting the priority of the game in Task Manager to high will allocate more of your system\u2019s resources to the game. Here\u2019s how to apply this tweak:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Press the Ctrl + Alt + Del combo and then click on Task Manager in the next screen. Alternatively, you can open Task Manager, using the Ctrl + Shift + Esc hotkey.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once Task Manager opens, locate the game, right-click it, and then click on \u201cGo to details.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Under the Details tab, right-click the game, hover your mouse pointer over \u201cSet priority\u201d and choose High.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, relaunch the game and check for performance improvements.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Perform a Clean Boot<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You might be experiencing lags because some programs that run automatically once your system starts are eating up your system\u2019s resources. You can find out if one of such programs is causing this problem by performing a Clean Boot.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whenever your system starts in a Clean Boot state, it prevents such startup items from launching. This will allow you to open Warframe and check whether you still experience lags. You can also use this troubleshooting method to resolve other issues, such as crashing and connectivity problems. Follow these steps:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Press the Windows logo key and the R key on your keyboard together to summon Run.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once the Run dialog box opens, type &#8220;msconfig&#8221; (no quotes) into the text filed, then press the Enter key.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The System Configuration dialog window will appear.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Switch to the Services tab and tick the Hide all Microsoft Services checkbox.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, click on the Disable all button to prevent the services in the list from opening the next time your system starts.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Head over to the Startup tab of System Configuration and click on the Open Task Manager link. You&#8217;ll now be redirected to the Startup tab of Task Manager.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Disable every item in the Task Manager&#8217;s Startup tab by clicking on each one and clicking the Disable button.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Exit Task Manager and return to System Configuration.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Click on the OK button in the System Configuration dialog window.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reboot your PC.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once your computer boots, open the game to check if you still experience lags, FPS drops and other performance issues. If you can now play the game without issues, then it\u2019s time to determine which service or program is responsible for the problem.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finding the culprit usually involves enabling a service and rebooting your PC, then launching Warframe and checking for the issue. You\u2019ll have to repeat this process for all the services under System Configuration and the programs under Task Manager. However, you can cut through the stress by following these steps instead:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Go to the System Configuration Services tab and enable half the services.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Click on the OK button and restart your PC.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> If the performance issue occurs, then one of the services you enabled is responsible. Disable every service in the list and start checking them (only the services you enabled earlier) one after the other until you find the problematic service.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> If the lag or FPS drop doesn&#8217;t occur, then you&#8217;ve cancelled out half of the startup services from the list of possible culprits. Perform Steps 1 to 3 for the other half.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Carry out steps 1 to 4 for the startup programs under the Startup tab of Task Manager.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you find out the startup program or service that has been causing the lagging issue, try updating or replacing it.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>How to Resolve Network Not Responding on Warframe<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sometimes, an interface with the message, \u201cNetwork not responding\u201d shows up on your screen, indicating that you can\u2019t sign in or connect to the game\u2019s servers. Many other users have experienced this problem, and as it turns out, the issue is connected to some local system issues.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For starters, it could be that the game\u2019s servers are down due to maintenance or other reasons, in which case, you just have to wait until they\u2019re up again. However, if you check and find out that the game\u2019s servers are up and running, you should try out the troubleshooting steps in this segment.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Allow Warframe through Your Firewall Application<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the common causes of the issue is that your firewall is blocking the game from accessing your computer\u2019s network connection. The resolution to the problem, in this case, is allowing the game through the program. If you\u2019re using a third-party firewall program, refer to the manual or any online guide provided by the program\u2019s developer to find out how to allow the game.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you don\u2019t have a third-party firewall program, these settings can be applied in Windows Defender Firewall. Follow these steps:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Go to the right side of your taskbar and click on the Show Hidden Icons arrow.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once the icon tray slides up, click on the white shield icon to launch Windows Security.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the home screen of Windows Security, click on the Firewall &amp; Network protection tile.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Under Firewall &amp; Network Protection, click on Allow an App through Firewall.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Allowed apps window will now appear.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Click on the Change Settings button.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, locate Warframe under Allowed Apps and Features, then click on the checkboxes to its right, under Public and Private.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Click OK and try launching the game.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>Flush Your DNS<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your DNS cache is where past network configurations on your computer are saved. This enables Windows to establish future connections automatically. If the DNS cache becomes faulty or if problematic network configurations are stored on it, you will likely begin to experience network failures. To fix the problem, try flushing your DNS cache to prompt Windows to establish a new connection. Here are the steps you should follow:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Press and hold the Windows logo key, then press the S key to open the search utility next to Start.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Type \u201ccommand\u201d (no quotes) in the search text field, and once Command Prompt shows up in the results, right-click it and click on Run as Administrator. Click on Yes once the User Account Control dialog prompts you for permission.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Type the command line below into the elevated Command Prompt window once it opens and then hit Enter:<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><b>Ipconfig \/flushdns<\/b><\/p>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reboot your system and launch the game to check for the problem.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Concluding<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We are confident you can now play your game without problems.
