My Frustrating Journey Fixing Marvel Rivals Anti-Crash Headaches
Alright folks, let me tell you about the absolute nightmare I had yesterday with Marvel Rivals. Game fired up smooth, joined a match feeling all heroic, then BAM! Crash to desktop faster than Quicksilver sprinting away. That dang Kernel Anti-Cheat just wouldn’t play nice. Felt like getting punched in the guts by the Hulk, honestly.
My first dumb move? Tried launching it again like a masochist. Surprise surprise—same crash mid-match. Rebooted the whole PC praying to the tech gods. Still nope. Checked forums, saw a bazillion folks screaming about the same error. What a mess.
The Gritty Fix Process
Time to get my hands dirty. Started digging into solutions like a raccoon in a trash can:
- First, killed ALL background junk with Task Manager. Discord? Dead. Spotify? Gone. Even murdered my RGB lighting app. Desperate times.
- Searched for weird services running secretly like spies. Found some 加速器 leftovers squatting in Startup. Disabled those suckers immediately.
- Did a registry dive using CCleaner. No clue what half those entries were, but scanning felt productive. Hit “Fix Selected Issues” like a gambler pulling a slot machine.
- Unplugged my external capture card—heard anti-cheat hates extra hardware. Worth a shot.
- Dug into GeForce Experience settings next. Disabled the Instant Replay overlay that was sneakily running. So many layers!
Took a deep breath and fired up Rivals again. Held my breath during matchmaking. Entered combat… no crash! Played two whole matches smooth as butter. Victory tastes sweeter than Stark’s ego.
But hold up—almost messed it up again. Installed a Windows update later that night. Next boot, crash reappeared like a bad sequel. Remembered my earlier steps: re-disabled overlays, shut down background apps. Boom! Game launched perfectly again. Lesson learned: Windows updates are sneaky little chaos-makers.
Key Takeaways
- Overlays are pure evil—disable EVERY single one until fixed.
- Registry cleaners ain’t magic but my old CCleaner install somehow did something right.
- Treat updates like grenades—they’ll often reset your progress.
Would I call this a “permanent” fix? Ha! With kernel-level anti-cheat, tomorrow’s another battlefield. But for now, I’m kicking ass in-game instead of wrestling errors. Stay stubborn, friends!
