    Halo Infinite not launching for PC


    Every time I launch HI, the screen goes black, the logo in the top right shows up and then the program aborts. I have reinstalled the game several times and tried all the repair/reset app options. I do get an error message every time I launch:

    "Could not find compatible Graphics Device with at least 4GB of available Video Memory. Please ensure you have a DirectX12 compatible graphics adapter that meets the application's minimum specifications"

    However, I have been getting that message every time I launch since the game came out and it has never been an issue previously so I don't know if it has somehow become one now. My graphics drivers are updated and I have tried the HD textures pack trick but all it does is uninstall and reinstall the entire game.

    :)

    Halo 5 guardians

    I'd wager the only possibility we see Halo 5 on PC is closer to the Halo Infinite launch. It would definitely create a surge in interest in the franchise and we already know Infinite will be on Windows 10.

    Halo Infinite launches in Task Manager but won't open a Window

    Having the same issue. I want to knowledge dump everything I've tried so far that hasn't worked for me, but hopefully might work for some of you.

    I see the game running in Task Manager under Background processes, but nothing loads. 3 processes show:

    • Console Window Host
    • DumpTool.exe (read that 'End task' on this file will load game after a few mins; hasn't worked for me).
    • HaloInfinite.exe
    HaloInfinite.exe is downloading to the hidden WindowsApps folder in File Explorer: C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.254428597CFE2_1.3249.19634.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe

    I've uninstalled/reinstalled/terminated/repaired/reset/uncheck hi-res features the Xbox App/MS Store/Gaming Services/Halo Infinite using a combination of settings/advanced options/wsrest.exe/powershell/cmd prompt still nothing...also restarted the pc a hundred times for those wondering ;)

    Halo Infinite not launching for PC

    Everything else works fine. An update problem makes sense, I just don't know how to fix it. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the game several times. All my drivers are updated. I have downloaded some new updates from Windows Update but that was after Halo stopped launching.
