Just open Regedit, got to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\GameUX\ServiceLocation and change the server address contained in the "Games" chain value to 127.0.0.1 or localhost (do a backup first if you wish). Some did it by deleting some dlls, but it is better to just change a registry key.ĮvilEdDead explained it well here (thanks man !). This is totally silly, but can be easily solved.
This bug affects all games listed in the windows registry at this location : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\GameUX. So it loops indefinitely doing nothing, and all these game won't work anymore. But it seems that the MS server ( ) is dead now. It would try to connect to the Microsoft servers to collect infos. Pouyou-pouyou: I just had a case of several of my old windows games refusing to start while the CPU would saturate doing nothing (Win 7).Īfter investigating a little, I found out that the cause for this was the Game Explorer (gameux) who meddled as soon as the game got started.
