Black Screen on Launch


StayClean

Question

Hello everyone, I hope I am posting this to the right forum.

I downloaded PoE yesterday, and tried to launch it, but all I see is a black screen with no music, the game's cursor is visible. Nothing works, I have to Alt + F4 to quit.

I checked around online, and people seem to think that the latest patch (the one in June) is the culprit.

I tried downloading the beta branch, it had the same issue as well. Some people suggested changing my computer's locale to the UK, but this is not an option for me, unfortunately (I am a contractor for some companies with web systems SO FRAGILE that changing my locale breaks everything up, or so says the IT).

Is there anything you could suggest to me? I did not attach any logs or save files, as it is a fresh install on a fresh Windows install.

Thank you,

Which platform? Steam, xBox... others?

By the way maybe the problem is that your PC is a company PC and some software installed on it cause the problem.

Hello, my apologies, I should've shared those details.

My game's on Steam. My PC is not a company PC, it's my personal/work one. I'm a contractor. I personally installed Windows 11 and other software, and none of them (just generic translation software) interferes with anything as far as I'm aware.

Thank you for your reply.
