Solution 1 – Disable Razer Synapse data tracking
There’s a Graphics Enhancement Mod for Guild Wars 2, also known as GEMFX, and it has been said that Guild Wars 2 crashes on launch when using this mod.

Solution 4 – Reinstall Nvidia drivers
There have been reports that Guild Wars 2 has some issues with Nvidia drivers on Windows 10, and the best solution in this case is to reinstall the drivers.
When you uninstall Nvidia drivers make sure that you restart your computer, and after installing latest Nvidia drivers make sure that you restart your computer again.
In certain cases, your system can operate better using older versions of drivers. As confirmed by our readers, you can try this solution to fix Guild Wars 2 issues. Make sure to stop automatic driver updates and download older Nvidia driver.
It’s crucial that you restart your computer after uninstalling and installing display drivers in order for this process to be successful.
Solution 5 – Change the game from fullscreen to borderless window mode
Another problem with Nvidia drivers is that sometimes the game minimises and crashes, and in order to fix that it’s suggested that you change your mode from full-screen to border-less window.
After changing the game mode from full-screen to border-less window, restart the game, and change it back to full-screen again.

Solution 7 – Delete the local.dat file
Some users have complained that their game crashes giving them out of memory error. This issue has been reported on computers with 16GB or more of RAM, so it’s safe to assume that the issue isn’t caused by lack of memory.
After some research it was concluded that the main cause of these crashes is local.dat file that is created by the game. This file holds some game data, and due to constant patches sometimes the data can get corrupted, so it’s advised to delete this file.
To delete local.dat file follow these instructions:
- %appdata%Guild Wars 2
After deleting local.dat you will have to change your graphic and sound settings because they will return to default values.
Solution 8 – Switch to 64-bit beta client
Constant crashes and out of memory errors are reported by the users, and game developers have advised switching to a 64-bit beta client.
According to them, 64-bit client utilises your memory better. Just go to the game’s website and download the 64-bit beta client and move it to the game installation directory.
You won’t have to download the game again, and you can continue where you left off.
Solution 9 – Change Anti-aliasing settings in Catalyst Control Center
It has been reported that Guild Wars 2 has its share of issues with Anti-aliasing settings, so if you use AMD card it’s advisable to change those settings in Catalyst Control Center.
Solution 10 – Disable certain in-game settings
If you’re getting low performance and experiencing crashes, you might want to disable certain options in video settings.
Video options such as character animation and high resolution textures can cause some issues on older computers, so make sure that you disable them.
