Warframe Crashes, Launcher Errors, Freezes, Online Connection Fixes

List of workarounds to fix Warframe launcher errors, crashes, freezes and connection issues.


After a successful beta run, the free-to-play third person co-op shooter is finally available on Steam. WarFrame allows up to four players to cooperate with one another to achieve certain objectives. The game is fun specially when you are playing it with your friends.

Although it is in pretty good shape, you might come across several bugs and other game breaking issues that may make it difficult for you to enjoy the game. If you are one of the victims who have been facing these issues, our workarounds can help you resolve these.

#1 Warframe – Cannot Access the Website for the Signup
If you can’t open the website, for some reason, then you should try opening with some other browser. Furthermore, a little wait won’t heart as it can be due to overload too.

#2 Warframe – Cannot Connect Online
Make sure that the game is not being blocked by the firewall or any other security tool on your PC. The problem can also go away on restarting Steam.

#3 Warframe – Can’t Start the Download
You need to restart Steam, and the download will start fine.

#4 Warframe – Can’t Login to the Launcher
If you have downloaded the game successfully, you should restart Steam. If that doesn’t help, you should try rebooting your PC. This should resolve the problem.

#5 Warframe – Update Failed
If your launcher doesn’t seem to update the game and gives you error repeatedly, you should wait a little and try again. It can happen sometimes due to the server load.

#6 Warframe – The game Keeps on Crashing After the Latest Patch
Many players have reported in about the crash. Unfortunately, no official fix has been released yet. In the meanwhile, you can do the following to bypass it:

  • Try running the game in DX 10 rather than 11.
  • Try running the game in windowed mode.
  • If you are a Nvidia user, update your drivers to the latest.

#7 Warframe – Physx Effects Fix
If you can’t seem to enable the Physx, you should try running the game in DirectX 10 mode. Furthermore, if you have an integrated GPU on your system (for laptops), make sure that the game is choosing the dedicated one and not the other.

#8 Warframe – Automatic Camera Rotation Fix
This is most probably caused by the plugged in controller. To fix this, you should unplug it or re-calibrate it.
