Step 1: Updates!
First, we'll make sure that all your software is up to date. In addition of verifying your drivers and framework 4.0, click the following links to make sure some other vital updates are made on your computer:

** 1) C++: https://www.microsof...s.aspx?id=14632
** 2) DirectX: https://www.microsof...aylang=en&id=35

Step 2: Repair Tool

The Mechwarrior Online client launcher comes with a Repair Tool built in. You can access this Repair Tool directly from your C:\Program Files (x86)\Piranha Games\MechWarrior Online\Bin32 folder, as MWORepairTool.exe.

To use the Repair Tool simply launch the MWORepairTool.exe and click Start Scan. The tool will verify and repair your install files to fix any potential issues. This may take a few minutes to complete depending on how much repair is needed.

Once the Scan is complete, click Fix Errors.

Once that is complete, close the Repair Tool and attempt to the launch the MWO.

If the issues still persist, please proceed to Step 3.
