Modern Warfare keeps crashing – Ways to fix it

  • If closing the apps didn’t help, restart your PC. Perhaps there is some process in the background that is causing the issue
  • Update the drivers on your PC
  • Also, make sure you have the latest version of Windows installed
  • Temporarily disable your antivirus software – just completely shut down the antivirus program, launch the game and see if that makes any difference
  • Change Texture Resolution – Open Modern Warfare, go to Options > Game Settings > Graphics. Find Texture Resolution and make sure it is set to normal or high
  • Stop overclocking your CPU – if the issue with crashing started after overclocking, make sure to put things back to default settings.
  • Set Moden Warfare priority to high – Open task manager and click on Details. Find Modernwarefare.exe, right-click on it, click on Set Priority, and select High.
  • Some users of Blizzard Battle.net noticed that when you turn off the Blizzard update agent the crashes stop, so open task Manager and turn this process off.
  • Repair your game – on Blizzard Battle.net, find the game, click on Options and then click on Scan and Repair. If you are using Steam, open the library, find the game, and click Properties. Select Local Files, and then finally click Verify Integrity of Game Files.
