[PC] 'Application Unable to Start Correctly (0xc0000005)' Error?

Lev
  • Updated

The Application Unable to Start Correctly (0xc0000005) error on launch can usually occur due to a conflict with Anti-Virus or Firewall.

We recommend ensuring you have appropriate Anti-Virus and Firewall exceptions in place. Please try adding following exceptions:

  • vermintide2.exe in \Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Warhammer Vermintide 2\binaries
  • vermintide2_dx12.exe in \Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Warhammer Vermintide 2\binaries_dx12
  • EasyAntiCheat_EOS.exe in C:\Program Files (x86)\EasyAntiCheat_EOS

A Selective Startup can also help identify whether a background application is the cause of your error:

  1. Press the Windows key
  2. Type 'msconfig' and select 'System Configuration'
  3. On the 'General' tab, select 'Selective Startup'
  4. Deselect 'Load startup Items'
  5. Reboot your PC

If the error no longer occurs after having performed the Selective Startup, try re-introducing your programs one-by-one to determine which is causing your issue.
