Hi @Huub_Houet
Shujni at Zwift HQ here. Have you uninstalled Microsoft Edge by any chance? The Zwift Launcher app piggybacks onto the OS default browser.
If you have not disabled MS Edge - please see if this article might help?
There are some other issues that might crash the Zwift Launcher app in this article Would you also have a look through those as well? If those don’t help, please reach out to my Support Team colleagues for some one-on-one assistance.
From your articles I learned the graphics driver could be the problem. Windows update indeed lost the graphics drivers and I had from old media the driver for windows 7 installed. I guessed that was the problem.
So I installed the latest (windows 10) driver from AMD website - I had to disable some Microsoft security option - and now the launcher works alright.
Thank you and Ride on!
Thanks for looping back to let us know you solved it! Yes - updating graphics drivers can solve crashes.
If this machine is old enough that it originally came with Windows 7, I’m surprised the motherboard (specifically chipsets) met Microsoft’s minimum spec to run Win 11. Glad you got it working all the same.
