I download the launcher. Get the desktop icon. Click it, nothing. Start it from steam, nothing. A little black box pops up and says ‘starting eve online’ but nothing happens. No new processess start or anyhting.

Same here. LogLite feed finishes with message “Process 7276 finished with exit code 12”.

Hi, Same issue for me, was working yesterday. Logged off last night and tried to get on this morning, launcher copied some files, trying to start client from launcher doesn’t work - exefile closes itself. Loglite also ending with “Terminating process by request - returning 12”, however just before…

Still no reply? guess they dont care.

I am stuck too and i done a ticket thay is unansewred since 2 days ago so … They do not care , agreed.

Same here… Following to Windows 10 developer update yesterday the launcher starts, log in ok but the client doesn’t start, it returns back to login. Checked firewall settings (EVE exe allowed) uninstalled the launcher spending all morning downloading files… (still downloading) lets see !

Bump. Same issue. “No Valid Display adapter found.” Full wipe of NVidia driver and reinstall. Full wipe and reinstall of EVE. Issue persists. Nothing past the bot response to the ticket. 2 days later. Not to mention multiple ‘findings’ of this issue across the forums some over a year or more…

So, after trouble tickets with both EVE and NVIDIA, and not so much helpful information there I spent game time the last few days figuring out the problem, and finding and fixing isn’t recommended for the faint of heart with computers. Really, serious, if you aren’t comfortable with the possibility…

I am having the same issue. Holy ■■■■ I cannot rebuild the matrix though.
