How to fix Conan Exiles keeps crashing?

It’s important to make sure that your computer meets the recommended system requirements for the game and that your GPU and CPU drivers are up to date.

1. Update your Graphics Drivers to the latest version

To fix the Conan Exiles crashes you need to make sure that you have the latest compatible graphics driver and that you have all the required redistributables.

You can update your Graphics drivers by visiting the website of your graphics card manufacturer, via Device Manager, or using a driver updater tool (which we recommend).

➡️ To update your graphics drivers using Device Manager on Windows follow these steps:

1. Press the Windows key + X and select Device Manager from the menu.
2. Expand the Display adapters section, right-click on your graphics card, and select Update driver.
3. Select Search automatically for updated driver software. Windows will search for available updates and install them if found.
4. Restart your PC to complete the installation process.

✅ Updating your GPU driver manually can be difficult or time-consuming. A simpler option is to use third-party software like PC HelpSoft, which can automatically update your drivers with just a few clicks, not just for your GPU but for any driver you want to update.

2. Verify the integrity of the game files through Steam

1. Open the Steam client on your computer and log in to your account.
2. Go to the Library tab and find Conan Exiles.
   
3. Right-click on the game and select Properties.
4. Click on the Local Files tab and select Verify Integrity of Game Files.
   
5. Steam will now check the game files and compare them to the files on the Steam servers. (If any files are missing or corrupted, Steam will download and replace them).

3. Clear the game cache

Clearing the game cache on Conan Exiles can help resolve issues with the game such as crashes or errors. Here’s how to do it:

1. Open the Steam client and log in to your account.
2. Go to the Library tab and find the game.
3. Right-click on the game and select Properties.
4. Click on the Local Files tab and select “Delete Local Game Content”.
5. Confirm the deletion by clicking on the “Delete” button.
6. Re-install the game.

*Please note that this will delete all the game files, saved games, and configuration files, so you will need to reinstall the game, and you will lose all your progress.

➡️ Another way to clear the game cache is by going to the game folder on your computer and deleting the “ShooterGame” folder. This folder contains the game cache, including config files, logs, and other data.

**It’s always recommended to back up your game save data before clearing the cache, to prevent losing any progress.

Other solutions that may help:

• Close any unnecessary background programs that may be running
• Try running the game in windowed mode instead of fullscreen
• Disable any third-party programs or overlays that you may have running while playing the game

Conan Exiles server not showing up

Conan Exiles no servers showing up is another encountered error in the game and it’s starting to annoy a lot of players on Xbox One and PS4. The second server issue is that players are able to see the game servers but they can’t connect to any because the server times out.

Below you will find some workarounds to fix the server issues and also a definite solution if nothing works for you.

Workarounds:

• Try clicking “Show Invalid Servers” in your server list. The list should populate. All servers marked with white text are valid and you should be able to connect to one.
• Make sure that the “Combat” and “Community” lists are set to “All”. The filter should be set to “Internet”.
• Go up to View – Servers. Filter by game – Conan Exiles. And now you should see the servers but the only problem here is that you can’t tell which PVP servers are Regular or Blitz.
• You have to refresh and then wait about 5 min. If nothing pops up then refresh again and wait again. Eventually, servers will come up.

We hope that by now you managed to fix your Conan Exiles crashing and its related issues and that you already started to explore the vast world of the game and conquer your foes.
